Anthony Joshua Secures Victory

In the early hours of Saturday, December 21, Anthony Joshua showcased his dominance in the ring, defeating Jake Paul via a sixth-round knockout in their highly anticipated heavyweight fight in Miami, USA.

Joshua’s experience proved decisive as he dropped Paul twice in the fifth round, before delivering a finishing flurry in the sixth that left Paul unable to continue.

Had Jake Paul won, the rapper stood to earn over $1.6 million (more than ₦2 billion).
