The rookie mistake allowed Klitschko to rally, nearly taking the lead as the two 6-foot-6 men went to the 11th round — four rounds longer than any Joshua fight had ever gone. That’s when Joshua unleashed a brutal uppercut that spun Klitschko around, leading to a win that set off British celebrations in Wembley Stadium and beyond Saturday night and cemented the 27-year-old as boxing’s new superstar.

Rounds 5 and 6 featured some of the best heavyweight action since Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and Lennox Lewis — the latter two sitting ringside — ruled the division.

These are some of the words from an Associated Press roundup of what has been described by many as the best fight ever seen at UK’s Wembley Stadium, an 11 round shocker that left two greats in awe and respect of each other.

As Klitschko said to the press, he didn’t feel like he lost in this epic match that cemented two professionals in boxing history books.
