Joshua got Klitschko at the right time. And even then he nearly got knocked out by the 40+ rust addled version.
I hated Wladimir with a passion but if he'd been a few years younger he'd have chinned Joshua any round he wanted.

Re: Anthony Joshua vs. Kristian Prenga | DAZN - 25 July 2026
Not a chance in hell was that fight fixed. Watched it in detail again and my thoughts are if it was a fix, Prenga would not have tried for the knock out after the first flooring. Prenga went for it.
I can't believe there was any communication from anyone in-between the rest after the first that Prenga had to let AJ win.
No one allows another bloke to knock him out, period. Prenga went down pretty good, that wasn't fake or any athlete allowing himself to be knocked out.
At the end of the day AJ is shot, Fury is past it but watching a 2 round slug fest with at least both going down once should be fun to watch, from my arm chair.

I think Prenga froze a bit cos he couldn’t quite believe it. Then he started to get tentative after feeling a bit of Joshua’s power and stood off Joshua and got chinnedMasterG wrote: ↑Yesterday, 10:41 Not a chance in hell was that fight fixed.

It's embarrassing that anyone on this forum is even entertaining the idea that Prenga took a dive. Seriously, did you start watching boxing yesterday?

Idiots mate, idiots. If you're going to throw a fight, you don't try and take your opponents head off the round before.MasterG wrote: ↑Yesterday, 10:41 Not a chance in hell was that fight fixed.

I get that part. But why risk life changing injuries by getting your head nearly knocked off, falling backwards and doing self harm to the extremekeithmoonhangover wrote: ↑Yesterday, 11:29Idiots mate, idiots.
