Share on WhatsappTwitterFacebook

Anthony Joshua ko’d bitter rival Dillian Whyte in the seventh round to claim the vacant British heavyweight title at the O2 in London on Saturday night.

 

Joshua,15-0-(15), who came through the toughest test of his career so far, put Jamaica-born Whyte under pressure from the opening as the round ended with both trading punches after the bell.

 

The 26 year-old Joshua looked in trouble in the second round but came firing back to stun Joshua with a left hook. Whyte followed up with some body shots to unsettle Joshua, who looked very uncomfortable.

 

Joshua recovered in the fourth round and began to find his range again unloading combinations before cracking Whyte with a straight right in the fifth round.

 

The end came when Joshua stunned Whyte with a right hand and then a cracking right uppercut that dumped Whyte through the ropes for the full count. Worrying scenes followed as Whyte received oxygen from the medics at ringside, though he later recovered.

 

On massive ppv undercard Londoner Kevin Mitchell was decked twice in rounds four and five before the fight was stopped in the fifth round against Ismael Barroso. The WBA interim lightweight title was on the line.
