Anthony Joshua Achieves Knockout Victory Over Robert Helenius

By Daniel Edu

Anthony Joshua showcased his dominance in a heavyweight clash as he secured a decisive knockout against Robert Helenius in the seventh round. This knockout triumph marks Joshua’s return to his knockout form, reminiscent of his victory over Kubrat Puliev in late 2020.

Initially slated for a rematch with Whyte at London’s O2 Arena, Joshua’s plans took an unexpected turn due to Whyte’s recent drug test complications. Stepping up on short notice, Helenius, who had just fought in Finland a week prior, embraced the challenge.

In the face of Helenius’s aggressive early strategies, Joshua remained composed, strategically employing his jabs and biding his time for the opportune moment.

The atmosphere in London’s arena, once filled with anticipation, transformed into elation as Joshua’s seventh-round flurry of three punches left Helenius visibly staggered.

As Helenius found himself collapsing against the ropes, the referee swiftly intervened, recognizing the conclusive impact of Joshua’s knockout performance.

Post-victory, Joshua was captured celebrating alongside the iconic UFC figure, Conor McGregor.

This win signifies a crucial turning point for Joshua, particularly following recent matches that left fans eager to witness his knockout prowess.

While Deontay Wilder had previously dispatched Helenius in the opening round, Joshua’s recent commanding display reaffirms his position and stokes excitement for a potential future showdown with the former WBC heavyweight champion.
