    In saying that Povetkin was the one slowing and looking old having won the first half. Round 6 he lost quite heavily and then done. Just too old and a bit too small. That was Wlad's leftovers. Fight someone your own age and size now!

    My mate went to Wembley to watch this last night, he text me saying that there seats were right at the front but they still could only see the action by watching the screens.

    I know that AJ's following are mainly football fans who enjoy a sing song but surely that is an expensive ticket only to have to watch it on the screen.

    Yeah povetkin was doing well but size and age took over. Once an old guy gets hurt it's rare they can come back into it as well as a younger guy

    luckily for Joshua he had Bellew screaming advice from ringside. Having lost to cleverly and blown away by Stevenson he is more qualified than McCracken or even the unified heavyweight champ himself....

    on on another note Bellew is always going on about fighters who quit. Be interesting to see what he says about plumber Price' performance

    Very impressive from AJ last night. I don’t think people give Povetkin enough credit . People say he’s an old man, but his pedigree is way better than Ortiz and AJ’s performance was way more comfortable than Wilder’s against Ortiz.
    Joshua is improving all the time and the finish was superb.
    At this moment in time AJ beats them all, and we may have to wait and see if Usyk is the next big threat in time.

    This fight was not a give me Povetkin is a very good skilled fighter.
    I was thinking 6 rounds got it wrong by one AJ produced the goods a clinical finish what more can you ask.
    I new Povetkin would cause AJ problems but like the Champion he is he prevailed and won.

    Just listening to the post fight presser, AJ usually really annoys me when I listen to him talking but I like what he said about treating his biggest critics as friends rather than enemies because they are the ones who pick up on the slightest imperfections, they are the ones who point out the flaws and that is what he uses to improve himself.

    good little statement that

    I like Joshua, but needs to stop bringing back that jab low and keep his left hand high or he's going to get starched. Povetkin was working on getting that right hand over the top all night. Between that and going straight back as (Ron Swanson mentioned)... Wilder stock rises in this potential match up given that a long right hand is his bread and butter.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    I had a re watch on an actual screen minus all the blur and chop. I don't like the way AJ was moving and that he literally got down to Povetkins comfort level early on. He wasn't just caught in the first but pretty often with the right hand be it pulling away or dragging his hands back. His legs are slow and have to say I think speed gives him much trouble with Wilder. Ended the show like a top champ but Wilder is fast and hell bent crazy enough to jump on those openings.
