and have to be ready to face any one of them at any time we made it look easy so they expect that it's gonna be easy but the Vikings not pushover I'll watch one of his best players David Price good knockout probably one of the best knockout rose in everyway books in right now punches are for kosnov stoves a Russian Mike Tyson it's called penis beer he knows what he's doing the man can fight and he's a world-class fighter it's not easy yes people expect same expectation they have the same expectation I have an s2 with will they take out me too in their blood bear sweat go read your poem value on what they're good at get hit with one and down you have again because early on everyone can take food page after r56 they can't take that same punishment anymore just read it get nice and early and eliminate his best punches [Music] Tibetan style doesn't doesn't really use a [ __ ] much but it's interesting because the fighter doesn't use that job much uses their perilous job in the sense that they wait for their opponents of further Japanese trying to count which is quite dangerous so it's weird color said wreck another news his butt makers use in for instance mine so he's using my job to fall short so you can count that be confident when you're throwing your punches with a fire lap you're very cute I think you don't want to go straight down the pipe because they can just swing one over and meet me down the middle so you go round the side Bam Bam bang come back here and then fall into the right so you start to learn about setting up punches and fame and it makes it very

ringside there is the heavyweight champ three belts in his possession but is he the heavyweight King Anthony Joshua was still with something to prove even as he sits on top of the world round one in the heavyweight championship Joshua and perfection [Applause] you can see the size difference right away with Anthony Joshua we expected this but the problem here is that Povetkin knows how to fight small six of his last ten opponents up over six foot five this is a compact small heavyweight he's powerful and team shots of the bigger men Ray Leonard I have to ask you for us you fought in the Superdome against Roberto Duran but what what is it like fighting under these conditions in this stadium it's exciting though it this is it this is the big the big stage I mean there is a roar a constant war here in this stadium right now affecting again 39 years old but the chance of a lifetime an incredible amateur athlete kick boxing world champion Olympic gold medalist and now gets a shot at the title only has one professional loss but he has failed drug tests a checkered professional career but here is maintained his standing and his ranking and he gets a shot at the champ and all guys this build beeping always expect early lockdown what I do document rather well looking at Joshua he's very so shocked yes began - Oh keeping him at bay right now cuz he knows he's he's dealing with a I think good body shot that I toss away [Applause] right there that is a huge chef you know for Joshua it's such a big metaphor that right hook to the body right when Tibetan was going to open up that was planned between him and his trainer and you can tell I mean of his size everything he every powershot he throws has tremendous menace it's a chance to end it [Applause] so much energy in this stadium even during this feeling-out process in round one as Povetkin who takes his chance there's a tension in the air because the thing about the Becky he is a tricky taming fighter and Rob McCracken merely was worried about that sneakiness because he's very adept at tying these big [ __ ] Tom in and look right there he's trying to sneak you right up with there josh has been working on his upper thigh as well there he returns a favor both these guys throw punches at heavyweights moving down throat it's really exciting and especially the left full mouth balance being to be aware that short effect in there with with a short walk in return as he's able to counter Anthony just said this was gonna be a violent game of chess and I don't know what that's common aside [Applause] one and he sends Anthony Joshua back on his heels it was an uppercut you never expect an uppercut from a shorter fighter like that but it was an uppercut that snuck in there caught his attention [Applause] [Applause] every errand is that is a nice three-punch combination it was a three-punch combination it was a jab or right uppercut and a left hook around the guard it's an it's not is it's an orthodox combination but that's the type of stuff that you have to throw at Anthony Joshua not only that given the size disadvantage to get all three of those shots in hard shots that's swayed the round floor or perpendicular what there's really no harm done otherwise but that pumped proved that we could hurt Josh just at the moment that you see Joshua as being just one punch away Alexander Povetkin shows he is here for real Joshua opens up round two with a sharp jab Joshua coming out with a bloody nose and he wants to make a statement saying hey listen he you spell that round with the last glory but I'm in control here but even throwing short hard shots that's what he specializes in Brian he knows how to time punches he's he's at a depth of fighting these tall guys and there it is again over blood is flowing from the nose of Anthony Joshua I've been telling him and I've been telling everybody that listens that the beckon is gonna be a dangerous fighter because he knows how to fight time man it's the timing he knows how to throw the right punches on the shorter fighter he's able to get that leverage off his left hook and my hands you say because he and Sam and Joshua definitely appears to be bothered I mean beyond the blood look it's not getting into the eye it's obviously coming from the nose but he looks a little bothered by that don't you think right yes keep that power okay I mean who knows maybe the nose is broken I know that could be damaged well it was welcome to tech comp I may be a repo [Applause] obviously impairs your breathing Anthony Joshua being tested immediately this was supposed to be just another part of the coronation again in support but he's facing a real test immediately she left again for Povetkin now beckon is timing that jab he's timing all these punches he's a looping fighter this is your Robin we're tracking he was worried about him fighting / Buckton the fact that he knows how to fight taller men with the sharp counters and then he throws decoy punches to the torso on Bobby he's just an excellent smart fighter he's lifted those folks he's whipped both of the hands around Brauhaus punches see my right hand with Bobby that all right there he's sitting overhead punch out there pinnacle joshua returns up there today joshua looks good when he is flashing attack inventing is able to close the gap right way not to say he's he's able to step in and loan that right hand because he's inching his front foot forward little by little he's three shots have you use are you least expect of Nancy quick hand and leaping it in with the left hook I believe there may have been a flash of heads but perfectin is is on a mission what he records on James punches express again he's able to get inside get closer to Joshua people if there was a number of punches he ever cuts left hit and meaningful shots is well ready for a bank that he sets them up he sets up those punches like that so he missed his he didn't set it up neither but he needs to set up the punches right there see the right on to the body makes Joshua question where is he going that says I downstairs and then Joshua's lair about letting his hands go to the nuking shot him to come over the top final seconds of round 2 Alexander Povetkin with a shot at glory Joshua nice check that scored straight to the face of perfection the bacon with his mixed legacy as a pro extremely accomplished Olympic gold-medalist only one Pro loss but again it's never won a pro title as the failed drug test challenges for a title now here tonight and he has Joshua hurt already [Applause] we shall that has one revolution to his pocket propose beautiful spoke of their Rega in the free day [Music] another look as the blood is flowing from Anthony Joshua and a hard right hand perfected it appeared as we go to round number three Yvonne kirpa in the corner was looking for even shorter sharper shots from Rebecca who's in Fisher and they both took growth acne the round ended which shows the spot below in fact it has earned that respect already of course Joshua's corner has to work hard now to Thomas stem that blood and stop it from being a distraction look obviously you must be in a patch fires an uppercut is one that just missed but you can see tight hard shots from Rebecca [Applause] [Music] Joshua just because it between he just has that the wrong time over him right left and he sets him up with body shots he just a name ever shot fighter protector is you saw the power punches landed there at least according to the Pokemon stats and there was an advantage from the victim landing meaningful shots as well not just scoring shots shots that have hurt and I feel Joshua's keep it outside moisten his left hand with this and was landing that that jab in the last round but has perfected won the first two rounds yet he may be first but he is able to get inside closer that's where his powers and those three short thrown punches lips of the uppercut hook comes off so were there how about you serger how are you scoring it I mean we won one it could be 2-0 good left hook there by alphabet game but I know and the sway is going to affect and that's what shifted look no one expected but nothing to be in this fight I did of course I needed one that who listened I said that Quebecers gonna give me trouble right now recede two rounds in he's given in trouble already disappeared nobody was listening to you worth it nobody's listening to you sir chill now we believe you atai what does affect it comes in these are short part shots you wonder about his stamina but you should be on top of just thinking about where are we as far as scoring rounds in Casey close to the car Povetkin again 39 years old maybe his best chance though are in these early rounds I'll preserve 30 million years old that's the difference he's fought he'd lost one time versus a big great hot food champion in Vladimir Klitschko no shame in back now he's fighting a big equally big sized Josh for six get six - you don't think he picked that fighting a guy as big as Joshua of course he did that's why I have infinity now Joshua is also not fighting very all right so you think I mean he's had a hunched over and the premium sucked back down to seconds Fox movie system people keep his bank brought a couple around see what he has Gaston you can see Alexander Povetkin is a formidable name in front of Joshua you can feel the fighting spirit as he's coming forward [Music] excellent timing it could be a short right hand reject exciting start here at Wembley Stadium unexpected [Music] anymore well time to overhead right there which is how he's made his living his bread-and-butter his timing he's bigger men over the top of right hands are left hooks but he sets him up with power shots clean little left hook right there those bother you look obviously in a professional fight you're trying to do damage but Povetkin you can see it's trying to perch on every shot I'm trying to hurt you they'll be punched that Rebecca thrown is serious serious serious doing [Applause] exciting start here at Wembley Stadium championship rounds they go to 12 here for the heavyweight championship of the world again Deontay Wilder has a claim on a title in the WBC Tyson Fury visit any horse feet flat Amir Klitschko they will fight in December right here we wonder what we see a new heavyweight kingpin Alexander Povetkin sharp in the first three rounds per second is really effective some heads it seems to be a cut class of heads they got the handle up Avoca Rebecca it's not as if Joshua isn't landing either Joshua's flashing out some jabs he is land he's getting some scoring shots but to see him bloodied and rattled early on as we see now Povetkin as you guys mentioned also blood she turns around here we get a better look at him what is coming from we've a pub his eyes [Applause] there's a classroom health I believe [Applause] when fighters are are bleeding that's why my trainers never been a fan of white glad your white trunks because when you start bleeding it just looks bad and I see now is Joshua's now a hitman saw two kind of measures man cuz damn well a couple changed things too yet to see it up close from where we are but at least it appears to be just above that left high and if it's above the left eye just there it will bleed it into the eye which obviously affects the final see the gash right there normally that's not on the eyelid it's okay this is borderline eyelid and I brought the medical might have to take a look at the other right now it doesn't seem like it's impeding his vision too much that was a surprising angle I think that Joshua is aware that now that is a wicked long right hand that being able to get out of the way you're right though Sergio like any Sugar Ray Leonard Sergio Mora I mean Joshua has that left hand playing low very low in and as good as timing that Rebecca does it's just a dangerous mistake and like I said earlier McCracken Joshua's trainer he knows how dangers a wall team punch can be he'll have to be as powerful as Joshua toothpick it's timing that matters it's a well-placed punching mechanism Ellis he knows out-of-place punches he knows out of time these big strong men it really is incredible that Povetkin is in in this fight Wayne in my opinion so far final 30 seconds of the fourth round each man is throwing potential night ending shots where's that shot again right there Joshua's gonna have to be worried about the whooping shot play another six of them room size affecting walking in here serious about his chances to be the heavyweight champion in every punch he throws that's evident but right now I want to see challenged by Joshua and then quiet runs I just want to see 50 jab just touch something and you're quiet like that it just looks bad on here Bo sakurada-san purchase you got it guys not poacher [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] sneaky uppercut Holger hand right [Applause] now two that come from that punch your website so it was from a punch actually we're trying to get a better look at it as we go to the fifth round and it appeared that it was a shot coming from Anthony Joshua that opened up that cut above the eye of Quebec Beckham in the black trunks champion Anthony Joshua in the white trunks perfected again 39 years old a 13 year pro his only loss to Vladimir Klitschko October of 2013 he has won seven fights in a row since and he lost in the decision which says a lot for him being six feet two and a half losing the decision to a Great Hall Fame champion like let's go same power shots he knows exactly what to do and gets inside you could see that the difference in styles Josh's landing jabs 32 to at least by the stats I mean there is one man jabbing and there's another man throwing hard power shops that looping right hand Josh his attention but it started with a jab to the left to the right side of Josh's body so that's what put back in so good at he makes you think of two places at once and it varies at the top of the plateau in this fight the new consent of the smoggy has obtained those would be deceiving them both shots at birth and look at those fates - it's rather you see happier extreme but right then you see perfecting feeling like three four five times those faints and then Joshua returns it back then coming in with a purpose throwing hard hooks you right right yes Serge your good point on the face you can sit just even stepping in and keeping Joshua at bay as he throws more uppercuts and hooks and make it out awkward that that combination well that's like a boy joins type up a combination you jump there with a net well then the left uppercut and over and right genetics athleticism to do now these are heavyweight but is a heavyweight doing it in the backend Anthony Joshua the champion bloody in the first round this is only a trickle of blood coming out of that hills now six under control by the shampo alpha Becky Josh was keeping that right hand up which wifey is so because I left hook disadvantaged we're in the fifth round already I mean it's it's so exhilarating that I'm look up somewhere the fifth round you would have it in a fifth brother per beckon might be winning yeah that's it there's been tremendous action from the start in this fight you cannot look away for a second okay see how right hand me through told by directors just to set up the one up time and you're gonna do it again tricky fighter PG fighter this perfectionism chocolates knowing the dabs there at the end of that round based SWAT bugs once again and we are through five it is moving here at Wembley [Applause] [Music] in the early going there's the sharp right hand and then again put beckon followed up I like with the left hand just cuz he happened to be there he saw his face right and also well thank you loop's those punches and that's the right punch to throw on a taller man but he makes himself he makes himself small right but Beckett makes himself small he's he he lowers himself and he explodes up he's been making a career doing that and that's the reason I saw these big potential problems for Joshua lieutenant I know how good in fact it is a springing up like that I get in his punch cooler now it's about fifty degrees these guys in a full sweat stop around 680 thousand plus here at Wembley Stadium in London Anthony Joshua has become a superstar here in Europe he is the man putting them into stadiums fight after fight but it is all on the line here tonight against Povetkin who is come in game and focused that's what I want to see from Joshua just go back to the [ __ ] touching him see let nothing that can jump in what they left orcs and then I'm this punch is for one today Josh ahead zaps down good hook there by Joshua [Applause] the hands Joseph Joseph Penhale the dependability of the follow and it's tricky too because sometimes he throws a left hook and then a jab on that jab and then he turns it into a left hook in the last second very smart Anthony Joshua has Wembley meant for April 13 in anticipation of another mega fight hopefully we fought Deontay Wilder in a heavyweight unification again Wilder has Tyson Fury December 1st that's all assigned Joshua had to take care of business here tonight and he's being more than tested good jab by perfected as he follows up with the right hand [Applause] hard shots again when you talk about surgery of the upper cut and hook you think Mike Tyson you know I mean that everything's coming from his hips from his body huh how much can infected shoot up his tip on his face hey back in those out of punch at the right time dr. DeShazo Charles Davis this is how he made a look at that Turkey Iran right Joshua had some success he thought he was having some success and then he had to watch out for old on right up Rebecca that was combinations from both men and good head movements as well that's what I wanna see from Joshua just there you go see the lead hook as well you're right the jab to the body Sergio then the hook and those are scoring shots from Joshua and once again the jab to the bottom and it's rare to see a 6:56 big table monsters man like that to go to the body like that just something to jab to the body it gets your opponent's attention it breaks them in half and makes him think about his torsion instead of his head there you go see that's that's what I want a big man to do we try to right there sneak it upstairs with a left hook that's clever stuff right there the poison you have to give credit to Joshua again it was this type of fighting then I mentioned earlier rejuvinated the entire heavyweight division there's nothing dreadful about this clinching there's no clutching this is exciting both bands letting their hands go both men pro with bad intentions throw back fight in the heavyweight division it's back to its first LOI with Anthony Joshua and tonight yes Alexander Povetkin it's a throwback heavyweight fight but they're fighting like middleweights I mean they're very athletic they're agile they're they have nifty feet even when they missed it only clumsy which shorthand slap there by Joshua but he has to get what he can get right now because verbeken is in this fight well he made it work there didn't he he only had a few inches but he made it work landing with the right hand when I mentioned this is like a throwback fight I'm saying we went through a long stretch of the Klitschko brothers when the division was ruled by either one of them at any specific time and I give them both credit and you can make them Hall of Famers both of them if you like absolutely but you had to urine a little bit for boho you know you have to urine a little bit ferment throwing their hands and when joshua fought flat amir Klitschko you didn't see any clinching or clutching you saw guys throwing hands at the heavyweight division that's what we have here tonight and we're now to round seven you know these guys remind me of head watching heavyweights toe combinations like these are invited like Holyfield type Thank You combination say the Klitschko air was there a big big baby popping on the jab and that monsters right-handed but it wasn't really combination tension it wasn't Bobby Brown so they were ever angling and agile Swift moves and foot moves like they are here this is athletic had the roots out there first with Deontay Wilder out there undefeated with this tremendous power so many great things that could happen in this division I could once again debate the world and transcend the sport of boxing you can't take it ok didn't expect this much Rebecca these hoes up racing it's interesting to Ray Ray Leonard you spoke about can this pace be done by Quebec and you see the punches landed and thrown Joshua with a big edge there in round six as we get to the second half of the fight [Applause] oh yes [Applause] it's over beckoned to his credit able to climb to his feet he is badly hurt [Applause] there's your test there's your answer Anthony Joshua the heavyweight champion of the world [Applause] and nothing you could say about perfection that would denigrate that performance since he got after it I'm stunned it I am totally stunned Anthony Joshua the power behind that he just has that magic he has that magic he's already faced adversity he's gotten gotten up from knockdowns fought through a broken nose in this fight it was a close fight I have Quebec him in this fight and look one punch ends it off he was hurt he was bloodied early and for him to come back and had his van hurt and then I'm no doubt Ray Leonard no doubt finished as he finished Povetkin off Joshua perfect a man took his time and threw his punches sharp and they landed had his man in trouble and took advantage of that opportunity and that is an exhilarating heavyweight fight Joshua putting his fist up to the crowd here in London and getting a a lustrous and it wasn't easy though it was not an easy fight that's what makes it so great is that Povetkin even he was almost through the ropes he found carpa his trainer looked like he wanted to help him up which you cannot do and still he got up on his feet that was in Janette even when Steve great the referee said step to me he stepped toward him he was not quitting not anyway he was quitting and he just got finished off by a bigger better man bigger better and just as athletic as perfec because but Becky was really really impressed me with it with this athleticism but the power and the speed and the choices of punches that Joshua throws is just incredible a fascinating fire and a great fire that is the severe test and again you wonder all right is he a great fighter is he a good fighter for this era is he just big is the division not as great as it was and you see something like this and you say all right hold on it does harken back to the heavyweights up the 90s when you did have legends roaming the ring that was a Joe Lewis type right hand it was a short little right hand him when they show it again it was a short little right hook on the rest is just over perfect beautiful because once Joshua heard his man we popped on top of him the stones in control stayed in control and his punches were sha accurate and pow look at how short destroy hand was Joe ala Joe Lewis I'm telling you was beautiful he wasn't landing the big extending punches it was a little sharp short right hook right cross that really got but back in the rest was just beautiful did everything he could finish with that ball does a strafing right hand Steve gray the referee did a marvelous job and that was over and Sergio you are right if Joe Lewis was known for came right off the shoulder like a six inch punch exactly Joe Lewis Tophet Joe Lewis from be proud right now if this young man I mean he really is incredible he has magic and just the arsenal the repertoire being shown as well the combinations as well he's a combination punch he's just a big athletic machine he puts her in trouble and he takes advantage um doesn't matter it doesn't let go well this is why this man puts 80,000 people in this stadium and you know another thing Brian Joshua was able to knock out let's go puddin good point good point and when you see this power coming back from adversity you know Deontay Wilder is out there watching and even when he's heard he can come back I'll tell you what if Wilder is watching he needs to be careful because this man is dangerous his technique is a lot better than Wilders I believe the powers probably just as equally as devastating there will be a heavyweight class for the ages I hope it happens next and I hope it happens here because this is incredible what happened here April 13th Ray Leonard your thoughts on mainly Joshua coming back from being hurt and going through the adversity of this fight and I saw him who's he was hurt he was in trouble but he's such composed final such boys man and combination of his on solid combination because beckons output may have gone down a bit but he was not going away though he was still glowing meaningful hard shots an exhilarating night here at Wembley Stadium the crowd is fired up you see in the middle of the ring Michael buffer and now Joshua he'd already gone over Povetkin was up on his feet as the two men could it exchange pleasantries and there's Povetkin right there bloodied up marked up but I tell you what his stock went up to about more I'm so much more respect for Povetkin now also and joslyn he gets better every fight it's like student only 28 years old in his prime and now building a proud career and legacy in defending his heavyweight championship [Applause] we are going to hear from Anthony Josh Oh as well Michael buffer is in the ring for the official announcement ladies and gentlemen [Applause] [Music] the official time a 1 minute 59 seconds round number 7 the winner by TKO victory still the undefeated pretty god of the United Kingdom AJ [Music] don't you [Applause] might say that didn't see the fight well later anybody that's commenting that would say you know what he beat a 39 year old Povetkin nope you just saw he beat a motivated fired up focused man on a mission Alexander perfect begin to find a real dangerous any rate a gold medalist a once beam Rebecca back in that head over 700 wins and sixty losses in his last 24 opponents with he's fought the better opposition Joshua just incredible in his performance on he really is he fought great fighter and he was able to put him away for round 1 hours press with the mocha Rebecca yesterday boy power our determination conditioning and again hard shots by both men I said earlier in the night both fighters throwing potential night ending shots throughout and Joshua emptied the magazine in that last round I'm also impressed again Povetkin badly hurt just no quit in him no intention like let me climb off my knees let me get off the ring apron and get back up then the referee looking him in the eye take a step toward me you know how are you and then he got a step toward because if you stay where you're standing that referee what if I were to stop this fight but you have to step forward get the show no no I'm going don't stop this and he didn't so Joshua got to stop it made it even more exciting gave the fans what they faced alone yes that's a heavyweight championship right so that's a unified heavyweight champion of the world incredible I was impressed with both guns five sets of rankings by the way that are out there look there's a lot of it but you can go by the the most prevalent five Joshua is number one in the heavyweight division Deontay Wilder is number two well Joshua with a huge statement here tonight it will be Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury in December at a sight to be determined all eyes will be on that fight and then you will look for the negotiations in this fight but Joshua look can say look I'm putting 80,000 in the stadium with or without you I'm defending my three belts you can defend your one to pick everybody though wants to see it think Wilder wants to see it after this performance I would think Joshua would say you know what it's time don't you think I think you know who has the leverage down Anthony Joshua oh yeah no question but Walter to his credit was accepting a lot of different terms as Chris Mannix had mentioned earlier everyone involved thank you very much your attendance and especially before we could get to Povetkin well said stopped a man with little bits and can we give a round of applause to Eddie huh please [Applause] and on the point you stopped a man that's never been stopped before a serious and dangerous contender former world champion Alexander Povetkin your words on your performance and what sort of statement you sent out to the rest of the division tonight yeah definitely and his idea Povetkin is a very tough challenger he proved that tonight we have good left Dirk's good counter punches but I come in here to have fun do what I've been working on in the gym and give it my best I realized he was strong to the head but I know that he was weak to the body so I instead of jabbing to the head I was just switching up and every jab takes a second to breath out of you so he slows him down it could have took seven maybe nine maybe twelve rounds to get him out of there but the ultimate goal was to be victorious tonight how badly were you affected by the nose injury in the first round yeah these short guys they're very good coming through the middle but let's not worry about that tonight side away let's figure out what's happening on April 13th that's what we all want to know the others question is who that you want to fight on April 13 let's ask the question I'm going to Amanda cheese right there's no mandatory challenges no one's going to spring up we'll see about our BOTS providing there's no mandatory challenges who do we want to fight here in April party we'll pull out onto our we're going to put a pole on to it because anyone's welcome as I said earlier there's always some complications with negotiations fair dues but the sport is about what the fans want sometimes you have to face arm and a cheese which I did tonight and now that's out of the way we'll put a pole out to the audience and see what they want April 13 because it's you guys you make this work a lot of people [Music] can you shed any light on why that quite didn't happen from your side we both done a lot of talking look I'm laying the blame game it was him it was me tit for tat we both got a little talking and I'm here now I had a good fight I've got my knockout streak back I found where I had it went missing for a little while I found it and it's lined enough for April April 30 it's about pressure in the build-up a lot of pressure that you put on yourself were you under pressure to put on that sort of performance tonight yeah there's a lot of pressure there's no doubt but I'm not gonna lie to guys the whole country's rooting for us all man not only mean David Price louis-napoleon Luke Campbell who else is on the under fire yeah the whole country's rooting for boxing you know I'm a heavyweight I'm a world champion so they get behind us people just about me I just come in and have fun one the energy in here Spurs you on and I do for that pressure I'm not gonna lie how hurt were you at the end of the first round and are you showing that you are learning a few years ago maybe you wouldn't have won that fight tonight yeah a few years ago maybe I wouldn't won that fight well that's credit to my coaching staff nutritionist management team people who helped me in camp security just trying to make my life easier it's about developing you know Sugar Ray Robinson lost it shows you how tough this fight is how tough this game is I'm in it to win it I'm in it to learn look as I said enough with the talking about my development that's down to the teamwork as I said April 13th is what I'm really interested in what's happening in here in Wembley Stadium in you who do you think wins out of dealing water and twice I'm not too fast to Winterfell - I only concentrate on myself but good luck to both of them I wish him well and made a champion bring himself to the UK let's have a good duster that's like can't be made would you be interested in going over old ground with you your old friend Delian what haha where's Dylan where in somewhere monster crowbar is a serious fighter that's all I want to fight is serious challenges we've got respect for each other mutual respect fighter to fighter but when it comes down to competition with both beasts we're both lines in the jungle and the best man asked the win so if villain wants to fight here he's more than welcome as well can you still improve can you be better 100% but then again the tougher the challenge the heart of the performance the more you learn so as I said to you earlier ten weeks ago twelve we see like a press conference this is chapter two remember when I said that at a press conference and I meant it so we're at a different level now and I've gotta find my feet again if I may not a bit ma'am but if what you're a bit member if you will wit if you get to pick one name you're gonna face you're on a 13 P would it be anyone I don't want to talk no more about it I mean there's no contract sign at the minute so my number one would be wilder and then that's it look that's it let me not talk about it number two number three Wilder that's all let you go but I just want to know if you want to say something to all the people that braved the rain Wembley's a great moment for you but a lot of people stayed out in the rain today was it rain bad listen I've played and I prayed and I prayed for sunshine tonight was rainy but we've had a brilliant someone we've enjoyed it and let's just have a great christmas is coming to the end of the year and let's finish the year on a high where everyone's doing it tonight be safe and I'll see you here again in April congratulations and well done Eddie Hearn this just took right [Applause] that's quite an interview right there and I like the follow-ups where finally he had to say all right well there's Wilder and then there's no there's Wilder because you know if you wanted to go to a pole for the fans but you might as well just go to Alabama and pull there for Deontay Wilder let's go to Chris Mannix Chris Anthony congratulations sub 50 degree temperatures cold rain and yet you still put 80 thousand fans here in the building you made him a little bit nervous early on this fight you finished with a knockout how do you feel about the way you fought yeah it was a clever fly sometimes it could be boring you know you have to find your feet find your your range and so on and so forth ultimately it's about getting there in the end it took seven rounds you may have took 10 inmates in 1200 Milius boxing and when you do that then knockouts coming I've got the knockout I'm happy but as the champion it's just about moving on and people want to know what's happening next so we booked out here April 34 another good night of boxing and anyone's welcome to challenge me for my titles before we get to that your promoter Eddie heard told everybody that would listen the Alexander Povetkin was an extremely dangerous opponent did you think he was this dangerous coming in and what were you thinking after that first round when he buckled you a little bit whoa I didn't buckle I'm telling you she like what right I knew as a serious challenger that's why sits about the end when you've been consistent from the amateurs right through to the pros got beat to Klitschko five years ago and managed to stay at the top of your game you know that's a serious challenger do you know I mean so he come in tonight look he's his chance to get his hands on the title what it takes is one punch he's got a very good left a very good overhand but a but clever make him miss make him pay I use already said you'll be back here in April I assume you'll wait till after December first to see what happens between Tyson Fury and Deonte well yeah which is a brilliant opportunity because we'll wait for them but Oh a melee I'm not gonna lie to you I've got the best management team and the best promoter and the press broadcasters with me in the business so what they'll do is continue searching the parameters see you serious the venue's booked the dates booked any challenges welcome and my management team are promoting team we'll do a great job putting someone here in the opposite corner to me April 14 there's a win like this make you any more motivated to fight a Deontay Wilder you can answer that question you put yourself in my shoes I've got with the belts I've proven myself tonight someone's gonna win or labelled someone's gonna win that belt December 1st so put yourself in my shoes and they said do you want to fight wild here next you'll probably say yes as well all the fans across the world will say yes and I'm saying I want it as well so the stars aligned will be here for sure over in the US Wilder would say he offered you 50 million dollars he offered to take 15 million dollars did he offered he says I'm saying you would say that he offered to come here what needs to happen for a Deontay Wilder fight to happen in April he needs to win December and then we need to sit down and just get the little bits out at a wage you know and me remember we've been negotiating after the second flight last year so it's been a long time negotiated he said certain things to Dylan listen you don't give me the money i won I ain't gonna fight anyone serious for two years so on and so forth Dylan showed on his DMS to the zone the thing is there's a lot of back on four pieces she said but oh Emily with two fighters two champions in the same division at the same time so at the end of the day we have to fight each other you know I'm coming from will be silly of us not to Dylan stepped up Malina stepped up Brazil stepped up Charles - stepped up Klitschko stepped up Povetkin stepped up Wilder will step up to a fury will step up so it was just a matter of time you've rarely disappointed you didn't again tonight congratulations Anthony yeah so this is the launch of the zone right it is nice to meet you thank you for tuning in and longmate continue boxing is on the rise thank you you
