Which boxer defeated Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium in 2017?

Anthony Joshua defeated Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium in 2017.

The heavyweight title fight took place on 29 April 2017 before 90,000 spectators. Joshua entered as the undefeated IBF champion, while Klitschko was a former unified heavyweight champion seeking to regain major titles.

Joshua scored a knockdown in the fifth round, but Klitschko recovered and dropped Joshua in the sixth. The dramatic contest ended in the 11th round when Joshua knocked Klitschko down twice and forced the referee to stop the fight. The result was recorded as an 11th-round technical knockout.

A common mix-up is Tyson Fury, who defeated Klitschko by unanimous decision in 2015. Fury’s victory came in Düsseldorf, Germany, not Wembley. Joshua’s win was later named The Ring’s Fight of the Year, and Klitschko retired a few months afterward.
