Referee Christopher Young stopped the fight at 1:31 of the sixth round in front of a crowd of 19,600 at the Kaseya Center. "It took a little longer than expected, but the right hand finally found its home," said Joshua. In a separate post from what appeared to be a hospital room, he added: "Thank you for all the support, I'm fine." Joshua, a two-time heavyweight champion, demonstrated why he is one of the best knockout artists in the sport by flooring Paul twice in the fifth round. By that point, the YouTuber was visibly diminished. Joshua noticed it too and sent him to the canvas with a right uppercut at the start of the sixth round. Paul got up time and again. "Jake Paul really had a good tonight, my respects. I respect him for trying," said the two-time British heavyweight, who possesses one of the most powerful punches in the sport's elite. The Englishman again floored Paul with a combination of punches to the head. Although Paul (12-2) got up again, Joshua (29-4, 26 KOs) finally destroyed any chance of an upset when he knocked him down for a fourth time with a right hand to the head. Jake Paul suffered a "double fracture of the jaw" after his loss to former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, the YouTuber confirmed on Saturday. Joshua won the fight by knockout in the sixth round, after which Paul later posted an X-ray showing his jaw broken in two places. "Double jaw fracture," he wrote on Instagram. "But he faced a real boxer tonight," Joshua stated. Concerns had been raised before the fight due to the disparity in size and skill. Paul weighed 216 pounds, and Joshua 243 pounds. "Give me Canelo in ten days."
