Anthony Femi Joshua Defeats Dillian Whyte To Become British Heavyweight Champion by SirToby(m): 1:46pm On Dec 13, 2015 |
Anthony Joshua came through his first real test as a professional, knocking Dillian Whyte out in the seventh round to win the British heavyweight title. Olympic champion Joshua, 26, came into the fight boasting 14 straight knockouts in the first three rounds. But Whyte, 27, stood up to some huge blows and, perhaps more importantly, managed to land a few of his own. However, Whyte was wobbled by a hook to the temple before Joshua finished the job with a savage uppercut. With Whyte dangling on the ropes and seemingly unaware of his surroundings, referee Howard Foster called a halt to proceedings. Joshua's thrilling victory was greeted by raucous celebrations at the 20,000-capacity O2 Arena, making it abundantly clear that Britain has a new heavyweight hero. And Joshua's emergence could lead to some fascinating heavyweight encounters on these shores over the next few years. m.bbc.com/sport/boxing/35084432

I imagine a sweet victory for AJ as Whyte had been running his mouth endlessly in the UK press. The knockout was brutal. |

toksesho: So brutal with no chance to recover in time. I heard he once defeated AJ at amateur level. That's why he was so confident. It was however tough. |
