Anthony Joshua “Tamed” the Cobra!

Anthony Joshua “Tamed” the Cobra!

Over the weekend, a great fight between two amazing heavyweights happened, between the current world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua and the former and current challenger of the titles Kurbat Pulev. This fight was said to go the distance in some cases but Anthony Joshua managed to beat the challenger in the 9th round via KO! Tyson Fury was not expecting this to happen at all, but he did respond to this.

The fight started with barely any punches, both fighters trying to feel each other out, not really many big punches other than body shots and one or two headshots, however, the round for all the judges went to Joshua with the way he was calm and collective and managed to push the fight really well. Round 2 was where Anthony Joshua started to try and pick off his opponent.

Pulev was outboxed and was not ready to fight Anthony Joshua despite what he said in the weigh-ins. Joshua knocked down Pulve in the 3rd round twice, as well as the 9th round twice and the last knockdown in the 9th round ended the contest with Anthony Joshua staying heavyweight champion of the world.

After this, Joshua wanted to call out the Gypsy King, Tyson Fury, to try and get a fight started with the current WBC world heavyweight champion of the world and even Eddie Hearn said the fight will happen this year! Only one issue… Oleksandr Usyk wants the title fight therefore this fight may have to wait, but no one knows! The fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua needs to happen! This will be the biggest fight ever!
