For fan of Joshua. This fight was 7 years ago, and Joshua clearly lost that fight 1-2 for advantage of Majidov. But today I doubt that 3 times World champ among amateurs Majidov can beat Joshua in pro boxing. Dillian Whyte also won Joshua in amateurs even with more advantage, so what? Joshua destroyed him after years in pro ring.

I had Azerbajani as a winner by 1 to 3 points, but you could also give a win to Joshua as well. Good fight overall

I believe this fight was dead even until Josh's punch at 13:08 and his two-punch combo at 13:18. Ihad him winning by a whisker. As a pro, over 10 rounds, who knows which of these guys would win?

[@ehmedeliyarov7421]

[@melanitex1089]

Again considering how inexperienced Joshua was he did extremely well here.....

[@MyCesarman]

MelaniteX I have a question I'm 18 but when ever I box a older heavyweight I get fucked up allot. im allot more skilled so I roll with the punches but i feel like I'm not strong enouph. do I get stronger as I get older or no.

[@gurzhikhanovden1539]

Jose Cedillo of course you get stronger. Keep boxing, eating good and healthy, do strangth training, go for runs every day. This isn't something that happens over night, it takes time and dedication.

[@Averagekhabibfanlol]

Gurzhikhanov Den1 great advice g

[@iRiShbLaCKzEr]

great bout

[@sugzinho]

joshua was rattled and it was from round house punches through the head guard which takes most of the impact - if it had been pros i think he would have been out of there - looks chinny and hitable to me

[@ngraeire]

Joshua will set the record straight in the Olympics and he won't need a home decision to do it. Massive prospect. He beat Tyson Fury up in a three round spar two years ago and has improved no end since then. Lennox Lewis rates him as a future World heavyweight champion. Enough said.

[@lukailic5439]

@Abdul Haqq we will see in rematch with Rouiz

[@gitzersmitzer4516]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ngraeire]

Snap! That was the first thing that came into my mind after witnessing that decision. You can be sure that Jonas will get the decision against the American and will meet Taylor in the quarter final. Katie will need to win big to make sure. I think the Irish boxers might be the only ones that have a chance of escaping the brown envelope treatment from the judges. Imagine if Johnjoe Nevin was on the receiving end of a decision like that one tonight. It would be mayhem in the boxing arena!

[@mwallin12]

What about Magomed Omarov? He is really strong and Joshua has been KO'ed before..

[@delfinx6836]

[@iminyourhead9936]

Nah man. AJ lost second and third.

[@TheSexyboxer]

Watching this fight convinces me Anthony Joshua has got what it takes to make it in professional boxing. He shows a lot of heart here added to his great natural athletic talent punching power. And more than anything he showed a very good chin. Which he will need more than anything else

[@jesmesHD94]

good vision steve

[@joecj3443]

Great vision steve

[@MubuDuke]

i dont think so... i dunno about if you use the amateur points scoring system, but if you use the pro system, i'd say that this azerbaijan guy won... anthony won the first round hands down, but he didn't really have any definitive moments whereas the azerbaijanian guy was walloping him pretty good several times

[@MrJamesfish]

Froch is a warrior with best chin of all. Not many boxers live up to their hype but Joshua will

Haha yeah. Yeah Savon was very quick and light on his feet for a super heavyweight. Even if Joshua does end up winning the gold, it'll always be tainted by that decision. It's a shame because he seems like a nice lad. I hope Katie Taylor isn't on the receiving end of another home decision, if she fights the British girl Natasha Jonas in the quarter finals. Hopefully she'll win emphatically so there can't possibly be a dodgy decision.

Defintally scoring Joshua as the winner for this, guessing something to do with faving the home nation here. Also for anyone still saying Josh cant take punches in his pro carear, they need to watch the 2nd round of this, he took some massive punches!

[@blue1991dbes]

You know they don't wear headgear again because of something related to concussions. He was younger and inexperienced. Which heavyweight takes punches well those are powerful men going at it you idiot.

The British always hugged the Azerbaijani boxer out of fear. He would never be able to fight against the Azerbaijani boxer without hugs. It is very funny that the British raised his hand. The British can pray in the church on Sunday as there is no knockout.

[@ngraeire]

I agree. Shocking decision. The Cuban was too quick for Joshua and the occasion definitely got to him. I still expect him to win gold though, none of the other boxers left have a fraction of the speed of Savon. The Brits obviously have the judges well versed!

No fucking home cooking, a close fight in the eyes of any impartial viewer. This bullshit about who looks like the better boxer doesn't mean shit. The last time I heard that was when Johnny Tapia beat Danny Romero, someone commented that Romero was the better boxer. Well Romero lost. Joshua improved his defense in 2012, but I still thought he lost Erislandy Savon.
