It’s a shame he retired instead of went pro because of this decision. He’d probably have all the belts today. His cousin was the best amateur of all time.
I can remember when Joshua was robbed in Baku 2011. I scored that final 3 times and on every occasion I had him winning by 5 punches. This makes up for it.
Joshua knew he lost. You can see the defeat in his eyes and shoulders after the last bell. The ref was even trying to give him extra time while he was holding to get his legs back right before that bell.

I've just watched back the Cammarelle fight and this one and it's clear some fanboys just wanted the goldenboy hometown fighter to lose, it's this whole rooting for the underdog complex gone mad. The Cammerelle decision was no way a robbery, this was the wrong decision for me but there are things that could have swayed if for the judges, AJ caught him with some beefy shots and Savon's body language and actions were negative during those exchanges(putting too much distance between them running down the clock).
In a way AJ was doing a lot of the the things Savon was doing over Cammarelle in the final and yet fanboys change their scoring criteria to try and give it to Cammarelle(you can't do that at the Olympic level). In this fight Savon was moving around the ring, landing clean, showing the better ringsmanship(all the edges AJ had over Cammarelle in the final). Cammarelle on the otherhand was flailing wide(often hitting behind the head), looking to clinch too much, hitting the air more and more as he gassed a little faster than AJ did which is why I gave him the final and deciding round(no question that AJ won the 2nd round it was the easiest to score).
Also, to reiterate my point about Savon becoming negative when he felt AJ's power, it was clearest in that second round he was backing off to recover not to find angles. These are short fights and judges don't want to see time wasted clinching or running for the sake of avoiding engaging the opponent. I still think Savon won but I'm just saying AJ's power told in those first two rounds and the crowd may have been a factor(shouldn't be). There's a reason Savon didn't want to hold his feet but that's good ring IQ in my book and how the fight is supposed judged at Olympic level I thought(clean-correct punching, good defence as well as offence, footwork and head movement etc). It's not right but I think they would have given Savon the nod if this happened in the final, seeing AJ go out at the first round would have took away lots of views.
Looks like a number of Savon's punches in the last round weren't counted. I absolutely love Joshua but I feel he may have lost this especially in the last round
@@billclark5055 Wrong. Fury, Wilder and Usyk are all better. You can't be a top 2 boxer when you get KO'd brutally in 7 rounds getting dropped 4 times by a fat Andy Ruiz who eats snickers and burger king during training camp and doesn't even take boxing seriously LOOOL....top 2 boxer 🤣🤣🤣
@@SiLoMixMaster I'm remember that when AJ outboxes Usyk. Also it doesn't matter what happened two fights ago if you patched your flaws. What matters is where you are currently. Wilder has worse fundamentals than AJ and doesn't trade well. Ruiz would steamroll Wilder in a brawl. The 4 knockdowns means squat. AJ got concussed round 3 from one shot and that basically took him out of the fight. A loss is a loss. It's not like an able AJ was just getting out boxed that whole time, he was clearly on wobbly legs. Before that shot, AJ was winning the fight. But he had the completely wrong strategy. However he changed it and learned. Albeit out of necessity but he did learn.
sevan had lost this fight before the bell rang. joshua got a manufactured career cause a lot of rich influential people saw their chance to get richer with him
@Zak Quin nonsense ive watched many amateur fights and this was robbery. Even more clearly a win for savon at amateur standarrd considering the jabes he landed
Savon clearly won rounds 2&3, but the first round was a little bit close. Joshua is nothing but hype!!!! He was clearly build up since his amateur days and when he turned pro he took all kinds of PEDs and started knocking out washed up fighters! I don't think he would stand a chance against a fighter that can box.
I would love to have seen Barrie Joshua up against the greatest Super Heavyweight ever..... Roberto Balado tragically killed in a car accident in Cuba in the mid 1990s. Balado won the Val Barker Trophy in Barca in 1992 plus World Championships. Just watch his tape... Wow I have never seen such a large man move and box like Roberto Balado. A real freak and Joshua would have started a big underdog against this level of competition.
@@Noname47122 It's true that robberies happen all over the world. But just talking recent fights. DAZN has some questionable judging in a lot of recent events.
Erislandy has dropped back to Heavy Weight because he was not a natural Super Heavyweight. Joshua would have been destroyed had he ever come against the Great Roberto Balado.
You idiot even if you are cuban you clearly need glasses as well to understand that Joshua lost that night if i was cuban and i knew Savon lost i would still support my fellow countryman
Just look at how respectful Savon was even in the face of a robbery. This guy is a true champ.
yh true

Even Joshua got surprised by the decision.Savon was clearly better.
AJ lost ...

@@kostasevagelidis 😂😂
This was one sided from the opening bell. Terrible decision. Savon is the man.
The Joshua fight is at 47:00
Ayo Deji thank you
Hero
AJ was truly gifted a gold medal. He lost this fight and then went on to lose in the final against the Italian.
Anthony Joshua lost that fight. IMHO
I thought so first time round and upon another viewing it was clear he lost. He was getting schooled in the second round.
Joshua knew he lost. You can see the defeat in his eyes and shoulders after the last bell. The ref was even trying to give him extra time while he was holding to get his legs back right before that bell.
“Lovely stuff from Joshua” as he eats 3 unanswered punches. Hate hometown delusion.
I just came to see if anyone noticed Savon got robbed and the comment section is full of it 😂
What an unbelievable robbery, Savon won that match, and he won that easily!
Usyk will do a number on Joshua in September. Just like here with Savon he won't be able to deal with his movement.
savon won
Not as bad as some at the recent Olympics but AJ was very fortunate to get that decision.

For the Italian AJ lost round 1, won round 3, And round 2 could go either way.

Even AJ knows he lost.
You could tell AJ face he lost
The scoring is a joke Savon completly declassed Joshua, this was a one sided boxing lesson, Joshua is a soap buble just like David Price!
David price
Look at where he is now tho you fool haha where are any of the other boxers that was in the olympics
