How did Povetkin managed to get up from that crazy knock down?

Yeah was pretty brutal series of shots he took. He showed a ton of heart to get up but it was clear he was done.

Joshua's power bailed him out again, he looked far from convincing tonight. I had him down on the scorecards.

 

AJ looked like he struggled with fighting a smaller man. Povetkin found him a little to easy to hit at times. AJ did the job though and it will be interesting to see whats next for him. Impressive finish and didn't think Pov was getting up from the knockdown

 

Povetkin was #3 heavyweight in the world and one of the most skilled

He was shading Joshua until Joshua got his timing in and took him out in brutal fashion.

Good win, Joshua isn't god he's not going to win every round of every fight.

 

in slow motion it was poetry.
Shot to the body drops the hands, left opens up the right and right puts him down.
Povs corner actually pulled his hands off the ropes to slow him getting up. TBH i would have not called a bad stopage if it has ended there

 

One judge had it 59-55 AJ

 

He wanted badly to win.

 

All the judges had him ahead. Let me guess....you had it 6-0 to Povetkin?

 

Povetkin got up from 6 knock downs from a prime Wlad, his chin was never an issue. Tonight his age of 39 caught up with him, you can't fight that aggressive inside game for so long at that age.

AJ had the right approach of seeing of the tough period, riding the storm before getting him out of there

 

i had it 3-3 but could have had to joshua if 4th had been a 10-10
9-10
9-10
10-9
10-9
10-10 or 9-10
10-9
58-57 or 57-57

 

It didn’t help Povetkin that his coach pulled him down. He had to get up twice. It’s hard enough to get up once!

 

Probably wanted him to stay down....for his own health.
