    When was the last time someone destroyed an 8-0 prospect inside a round on their debut... Joshua didnt break a sweat. Thunderous jab, legit KO power, serious handspeed and overall great technique this kid is the real deal

    Wlad will be making his retirement plans

    The guy has had only one fight and you already write him off as another "savior of the heavyweight division"?! :roll:

    Give the man a fair chance before you put him in with the long line of losers who got stained with the "heavyweight savior" mark.
    Maybe this guy actually developes and when he's in contender status he probably won't even have to deal with the Klitschkos anymore.

    did you watch the fight?, i don't know how his opponent won 8 fights as he was awful. Could barely move and could barely throw a punch properly. Joshua proved nothing tonight.

    Apparently his opponent had an epic 3-fight trilogy with Sandor Balogh to sement his legacy before this fight.

    He's a better chance than Flintoff but that's as much as I'll commit to.

    Here's his debut.

    Looks pretty good. Throws punches smoothly. We won't know much more until he steps up the opposition, I'd like to see Joshua v. Audley within a year.
