Nigerian born UK heavyweight boxer, Anthony Olufemi Joshua has successfully defended his WBO HEAVYWEIGHTS Belt after an impressive 10rounds knockout of Carlos Takam, that makes it 20 KOS out of 20.
Shortly after another knockout victory over tough battling counterpart, Carlos Takam, Nigerian Born UK WBO Heavyweight Champion Anthony Joshua has hailed Takam as an Holyfield-like fighter who bends down to hit opponent and bobs up.
"Thank you Cardiff in coming. Not my job to worry about the referee it is my job to break my opponent down round by round. I think people want to see Takam unconscious on the ground, am I right? (Crowd cheers) And that was the point I was trying to get to. But I cannot control the referee.
He comes down and bobs up, like Holyfield. This is a championship, if I had not been able to breathe... then it would have been a massive disaster. But if I had showed any weakness the referee might have stepped in. That's what the ref did to him, he jumped in early.
It feels broken. My plans now? To get my nose cracked back into place, for starters.
I cannot fight Joe Bloggs from nowhere. I have obligations. Once I have done them I will fight anyone. My door is open to all challengers." Joshua stated.
