Former world light heavyweight champion Antonio Tarver appreciated the performance of the ex-leader of the heavyweight division Anthony Joshua in a duel with Otto Wallin.

On December 23, in the main event of the boxing evening in Riyadh, the Briton forced the Swede to refuse to continue the fight before the sixth round.

“I said that after the fifth round Wallin would give up on the stool. Joshua looked great, now he will rise in the rankings. Anthony was cool and calm. This was the best Joshua I've seen in a long time. I give him an A+,” Tarver said in an interview with FightHype.
