Joshua supremo four belts.

Antony Joshua simply proved that he is a champion, really supreme in his performance, without taking anything away from Pulev who did what he can do, but the champion is too much stronger.

Absolute control throughout the match, excellent defensive phase. Cautious, careful, vigilant, excellent work with the jab and ready to put back his devastating right. At the third round the match could have been stopped, according to the rules, because Pulev went down twice, first with a right hand and then with a couple of uppercuts, but he gave his back to the champion, and when you give your back it means that you don’t want to fight, that is not to take more blows he gave his back in the passive defensive phase. So Antony had already won, that’s why I repeat the match could be stopped.

But he went on for six more rounds, where the Englishman has shown that he knows how to box, and at the ninth round with a devastating right jab he finished, Pulev has done his job, dirty, but nothing could against the power of Antony, who seemed very very careful, and really made us see a good show at offensive and defensive level, even Pulev has done his part is a top fighter at heavyweight level, but being a champion is different.

Timing, eye, attention, good job, even in the head Pulev tried to put some dirty blows during the clinch, but Antony was careful and good not to get nervous, the referee let run a little bit, but that’s how it went, a good fight. At the end even a certain Floyd went to congratulate him.

There is already talk of contracts signed for a match against Fury, two matches; we will see. For now we pay homage to a champion.
