Kevin Mitchell has a lot of heart, that was an excellent finish. Needs to improve a lot next time but props

FFS Ref. Yes he had Maduma going but let the fornicator go on, he was ahead and had the right to go out on his shield.

Premature stoppage for me. Think the fight should have continued.

Taking nothing away from Mitchell though. Showed he has the heart for the fight. Does this mean it's Miguel Vazquez next for the IBF Title?

Mitchell was having a torrid time in there at times but showed real toughness to dig himself out. Good fight.
Also is that Ceel Lo Green or Carl Cox sitting behind Joshua

They have just said that Mithcell was 2 down on all the scorecards so with the 10-7 scorecard and the momentum he probably would have won but it just leaves that question mark. Yes Maduma did slightly stagger at the count of 8 but he was on his feet and bouncing so I think he should have been allowed to carry on with so little time left in the round.

Maduma was knackered he could barely stand up. The stoppage was correct.

He adds a bit more precision to his thoughts, which I prefer.
