    Wlad showed us the blue print on how to beat Joshua.

    Wlad gave it his best but ultimately it was not good enough. He was vastly improved.

    3 knockdowns and some huge, punishing shots from Joshua just bulldozed Wlad.

    So chuffed for AJ, great fight, good finish from nowhere. Fantastic.

    Twice, and then was getting hammered with massive shots before The referee stopped it.

    I did not see it yet, but it loos like Wlad at age 41 and out of the ring for 1.5 years was never even and almost pulled it out.

    What were the scorecards?!

    "Vlad not going for the kill will come back to haunt him."



    Why does Vlad hold so much during the fight but hardly when he's hurt?

    I think this one is the best that Klitschko has done recovering from getting knocked down. That round 5 was pretty epic. I think he should hang em up, call it a hall of fame career. He showed more heart here in this fight than in other ones where he got dropped. Turned the fight around but either couldn't put him away or just relaxed too much and gave Joshua an opening.

    Bro, you can't have good stamina when you weigh 250 pounds. Yea, that's just how the human body works.

    Wlad was 10/1 on to win the fight in the sixth round ...

    This fight would've been over in the 5th Round if AJ had better stamina. He took at least two rounds off "talking" while trying to shake off the fatigue.

    If he hadn't gassed after the first knockdown, he would've closed Wlad out right there. Being so excruciatingly tired at that point is the reason why he was caught and dropped himself.

    ...come on watch the 2nd kd in round 11 every fight on earth usually gets stopped after that kind of kd, Wlad got up yes but could no longer throw punches back I love the coup de gras as much as the next guy but Wlad was not gonna make it out of that round either way.
