What Really Happened (Anthony Joshua vs Robert Helenius)

My only regret with Spence was that leading up to the fight I started to buy into the hype. After years of Saying Crawford beats Spence I thought to myself " how can so many people be picking Spence? I must be missing something". Which lead me to think it was a 50/50 fight in the week leading up to the fight. I should I have stayed with my gut instinct I had for years that Spence was overrated.

 

AJ looked awful awful, but even with that I knew Helenius was going to get knocked out because the guy was absolutely tired after 5 rounds

 

Perhaps Joshua simply lulled Helenius into a false sense of security with round after round of his tentative, pity pat approach?

Thing is though, Helenius has virtually no lateral movement and is there to hit all night long. Little wonder Wilder blasted him out so quickly.

It was interesting too to see Joshua actually listening intently to his corner's instructions for a change.

 

I'm always doing wrong picks lol. The last one was Joyce and Zhang. Sometimes you need to see the fights happen to actually know.
