    Just wanting to get the views of the forum into a poll, as I'm quite shocked at how many I think I'm seeing, saying it wasn't an AJ win...

    Look the first time AJ was taken the distance the trolls were going to say it was controversial.

    It has no basis in reality, deep down they know that.

    Need to rewatch it. I watched on sky's ridiculous cinematic coverage from all angles so am hoping showtime have a better version of this.

    But I had Joshua edging some tight rounds on generalship and the jab. But Parker won his rounds more convincingly.

    Had it AJ by 3

    I pretty much agree with all of this, except had Joshua by 4 myself

    Thought Joshua clearly won. Parker didn't do enough.

    117-111
    but 118-110 to 115-113 could be justified
    119-109 is a bit silly

    116-112 Joshua.

    I can't see how AJ won that by 10 rounds, that was an awful card.

    You can interchange the commentary with the judges, homers the whole lot.

    Anthony Joshua 9-3 8-4. Light work, referee was a disgrace not letting both men fight the inside. Early on, the inside would of helped Parker alot more and late on the inside seemed like Joshua was getting the better of it but the referee was having none of it. Parker was very hesitant to stand and trade, Joshua stayed focused, peppered Parker with a jab and won the fight.

    The jab of Joshua & the ring generalship won this fight.

    8-4 or 9-3 for AJ. I expected too wide cards as it was in Britain.

    Joshua won pretty wide for me, I'm sober not like some on here who had Parker winning.

    Ok, good, my faith in (most of) the people of the forum is restored. Had it 116-112 AJ myself

    Comfortable for AJ. I had it 8-4 but would have been okay with 7-5 or a draw result.
