Yessss AJ. He's got a chin. He's got the heart. Bring them all on.

His chin is as suspect as ever.

Same opinion on the chin as post the whyte fight. Wobbly legs throughout

Great fight. Klit needed to press the action nonstop after he knocked AJ down, and the next 2 rounds. After that, AJ got his second wind, and it was just a matter of time.

Joshua TKOs Klitschko in eleven
In the biggest heavyweight title fight in years, undefeated IBF champion Anthony Joshua (19-0, 19 KOs) scored a spectacular eleventh round TKO over long-reigning former kingpin Wladimir Klitschko (64-5, 54 KOs) to retain his IBF title and claim the vacant WBA title in front of a record-setting 90,000 fans at London’s Wembley Stadium.
Joshua landed the better shots in round one. Tactical round two, Wlad connected with a right hand early. Joshua ramped up the pressure in round three. Both landed hard shots in round four. Joshua rocked Klitschko and dropped him in round five. Wlad, cut over the left eye, came back to hurt Joshua later in the round. Klitschko dropped Joshua with a crushing right hand in round six and dominated the round. Joshua appeared gassed in round seven and Klitschko pressed the action. Klitschko backed up Joshua with his jab in round eight. Joshua did some good bodywork in round nine and clearly had gained his second wind in round ten. Joshua landed some big shots in round eleven, dropping Klitschko twice and the bout was waved off by referee David Fields after Joshua’s savage follow-up barrage. Time was 2:25. Great fight!

Both fighters come out of this with credibility. Well done to Joshua for finding a second wind and to Klitschko for showing what a true warrior he really is even at 41.

I want to see Joshua v Fury now

Same here, unfortunately Fury is miles off from being fit enough. The fight would be over a year away in the making at least (that's if Fury gets back in the ring again).
Hope AJ takes on Ortiz next instead of Pulev. Don't fancy Pulev making it out of the ring alive after yesterday's effort.
