I did.

I apologise Joshua.

I thought AJ was done. But I thought it would go 12 after that, he tasted Klit and didnt like it. Went gun shy and was behind on points. That punch in the 11th round was very much like those boxing robot toys in the 80's I thought Klits head was about to come off.

AJ, a lot to learn.

Josh has a hell of a lot of work to do

A hell of a lot

He appeared done. It looked over but he hung in. Klit just couldn't finish him.

Didn't look far off

I thought he wouldn't last either.

He's answered a lot of questions about himself tonight.

In fact, both men did, but due to the way the fight panned it, opens up a sort of Pandora's Box for both of them now.

It will be interesting to see what the future holds for both of them

True, but he just graduated from the most elite boxing university in the world.

Most boxers dont get world title shots after 19 fights. Putting titles aside it was a good scalp. AJ is best of the bunch at this present time.

Am I being harsh in thinking this was more due to klitschko not finishing the fight than Joshua's heart that he came away with the win

Me too.

No you are being 100% right

He seemed shagged out and wobbling around like David Price in the 6th. I thought he was a goner!

Yes I though he was done also

You could say that about any fight that went this way.

I dont even think Klit aged during the fight. I was thinking after the 6th AJ was trying to take this the distanc ein hope he could catch Klit if he suddenly became an old man but that didnt happen. The beautiful upper cut in the 11th round was a peach. Luckily I think AJ got a decent second wind which I never thought would happen and seemed to be fresh again. I think he became a little gun shy though. Which is not surprising.

One or two more significant shots could have ended it in the sixth. Joshua was very shaky right to end of the round and took another few rounds to get back into it. He had him but he didn't

He was blowing out of his a*se, he looked clueless for most of it, fair play to Joshua for his win, but to achieve elite level,which I doubt he will, he has so much work to do

Ortiz beats Joshua easy, fury beats him easy, wilder who is sh*t quite possibly KOs him

he was done, klitchko was just to old to bring it home.

I loved his trash talking in that round. He was showing heart. I know this isn't always the case but he was telling Klitschko "I'm still here, mate"

But I'm not in saying about this one vlad of five years ago would've finished him

I dont think a lot of work, I just think he needs more experience with fights. I think he does his work just a little inexperienced due to the amount of fights hes had.

Do you get any more elite than being the heavyweight champion of the world ffs ?

He was done at round 6. Wlad's negativity in the ring actually cost him this time.
