HIGHLIGHTS! David Avanesyan crushes Josh Kelly & hands him his first professional defeat

Bit of a weird stoppage, Kelly is hurt a little, but just seems to lose balance more then anything.

Hype....good looking...good style...he's a barber in real life

There ya go this is what happens when ya fanny about, Connor bruv you could of fought this guy but you took a gamble thought of the money geezer, let it get to ya head and thought itd make more in the future, nah, no one stays unbeaten too long, especially when ya young, cmon man

This loss will make or break the lad so much talent I've watched all his fights and he switches off so much in fights his concentration comes is spurts

Avenesyan is a former world champion and has wins over the likes of Shane mosley under his belt, he's a world class fighter with terrifying conditioning.

josh kelly so cocky but got humbled by deceivingly meek fighter david Avanesyan.

AVA is relentless , monster performance, showed his metal from top level experience non stop aggression in ya face, tight guard and landing spiteful punches, he was too much, game plan was on point!

That Kelly was made to look like an amateur. Beat down

10:54 Can you punch vertically down like that in Boxing to the back of the head when your opponent stumbles and is half on the floor? I noticed Ruiz did that against Joshua.
I realise he missed, and Ruiz didn't, I just wondered if it's considered within the rules or the opponent has to be facing you and can't be facing away from you when you hit them on the back of the head?

Corner threw in the towel and mackems scattered thinking they had to get a bath.

Crushed?? People are talking nonsense here. Kelly did great - he was just defeated by the other guys durability.

plenty of skills from Kelly but good old fashioned grit and knowhow from avanesian... worse him down piece by piece
too soon for Kelly and he needs to lose that stupid attitude

Lewis ritson anthony fowler josh kelly josh warrington dilian whyte which overhyped bum is next to be knocked off the list of sky sports champions?? Best talent in the uk is josh buatsi in my opinion but the man just isnt active enough which is a shame because hes in a great division, love to see buatsi vs callum smith the end of the year

Maybe he'll learn from this and come back better

war

No substance

Kelly is very talented. A lot of us would be that cocky if we had such boxing talent. He beat himself here. With a more mature strategy using his skills to his advantage he would have won this and could beat quality opponents. I hope that he reaches his potential.

How Kelly unravelled so quickly after some good early rounds and even some really good moments in the 5th is a little worrying. There’s no doubting Ava’s determination, strength, stamina and heart, but it wasn’t as if he offered a big skill set coming forward, more just constant pressure, which is fair enough. So the question is why couldn’t Kelly cope after rd 6? Is it the weight, or simply his undoubted amateur skills have not yet transferred to the pro-game? In which case it probably was a fight too soon in his career. Or may be it just isn’t there at the higher end of the pro game. Time will tell. As for Ava...onwards and upwards and good luck to him. Although I think his level is probably just below world level given the champions around this weight.

I like how Josh thinks he looks cazy with his eyes then when he loss he looked like the little weasel lol

Why did he keep going for his cut dirty that

If u have skills u gotta know how and when to use them

Got smashed,maybe put his ego away now

Kelly trying to be mayweather but it’s just not working for him. He needs to find who Kelly is. His got talent.

Sad to see Josh pick up a defeat but he will come back sharper....looked like he had it until fatigue set in....good on AdamB for looking after him as the legs were gone.

Walked him down till is legs went

Deserves to lose with a name like KELLEH

All the english boxers getting spanked mate. Even katie taylor lost not long ago but they gave her the win lol corrupt boxing is lol bunch of hype jobs and eddie knows it lol

It's crazy how these guys weighed in at 10st 6!!😯

Where's the slow motion 🤔🤨☹☹☹☹

People giving kelly Stick Are idiots dont understand the Scale of The task he accepted at such a premature stage of his Development. He failed on one element, he has went the distance a few times but he has never had anyone apply the pressure consistently.He is so naturaly talented i feel he has neglected the essencials

Just love go forward fighters ! Top win

Kelly looks good thats about it

Can’t predict boxing. You can perform like the better boxer but still lose

Fight changed when they collided heads deffo... the pressure was really good but he was doing him off the back foot like Adam booth trains his fighters kelly is deffo gonna be champ real soon 10 fights in bet the towel wouldn’t have been thrown without the cut also but a lot will disagree but that’s calm PBKKK🔥🔥🔥

This loss for PBK is a blessing in disguise. He's clearly got immense talent but he will now understand that winning fights isn't about just looking good. Showboating and loosing isn't a good style.

10.56 elbow

First Warrington now Kelly wats going on with these Uk fighters 🤦‍♂️

The Russian is so damn hungry and he can't loss

I feel so bad for kelly 😞

Ignorance and arrogance VS Composure and determination

Only us Irish have been able to compete at the highest level, The English are known for their failure to compete at the highest level. Jack Dempsy, Quarry, Fury, Frampton and McGuigan.

Kelly reminds me a bit of Nathan Cleverley. Looked a class act but reached a certain level and came undone. Young enough to prove me wrong mind.

Would like to see Kelly Vs Danny garcia

Thanks for the spoiler was looking forward to this 👍 they are cutting out half of the fight too 😡😡😡😡 anyways I’m I unsubbing good whilst this channel lasted

I feel bad on the boy who got badly hurt/looks like there both crying

Ego warrior dies a cowards death. No heart. Falls in the face of adversity.

Eye of the tiger

At lot of these boxers lack that real G toughness, only life can give you that

Just a fancy dan and no substance

Show off gets knocked out nice one love it.

Yup gulf in class very evident there, tactics all wrong from JK, another fighter whos been told hes the best before fighting the best, he wont be the same fighter after this which might be a good thing, he might reign in some of that showboating we have seen in other fights, funnily enough Marku will make the same mistake, best way to push that out of a fighter is for the fighter to be easily beaten as we saw with David, a class performance.

Beautiful

Where did that cut on the back of the head come from?

Kelly went in there thinking he could beat a guy who has won 2.5 times the amount of fights that Kelly has had. Made himself look like an idiot and got walked down the entire time. I do like it when showboaters get their comeuppance.

5:52 "Avanesyan TRIES to get a hook of his own" as he lands a clean hook. Blatant biased commentary and they proceed to praise Kelly for work he did 2 minutes before rather than acknowledge the currrent success of Ava.

Josh Kelly unfortunately showboated more then he did or could box, keep it simple, keep it from range, questions gotta be raised about his rank? Surely, Warrington walked down kelly walked down making it easy.

Good fight!!
Big respects to every fighter!

please change the sky commentators please they make me not wanna watch sky boxing.

The reason why you can't step up to unorthodox set-ups and be cocky, is because you need to be tough first.
Why, because there are tough fighters out there. Especially if they are Russian xD

Nice Philly shoulder roll Josh Kelly! You dodged every punch amazingly well! Use it more often...

If only Kelly had a bit more power in his punches

Don't look too natural at that weight, maybe up a weight n bounce bak then fight the best fresh weight for you have all you strength n natural power n equal stamina everyone has that point where you peak......can't be worked out in 10 months u will never lose a fight ever again hardcore mindset each punch u unleash will flow each impact will drive to your opponents core this system has now weakness

Kelly lol

excellent aim with the towel

Great fight.

Good relentless pressure, Josh was getting caught all over the place indeed!

cheeky boxers bring entertainment to the sport. I hope Kelly comes back stronger 🙁

Avenesyan had zero respect for Kellys power. All of that dancing and prancing, yet so easy to hit.

Going by this, it’s hard to see Josh ever being a world class boxer. He’s definitely got some skills but is not as strong or powerful as he appears. He looks like he would capitulate under sustained pressure. I hope he proves me wrong & comes back stronger.

Blowing out of his arse by the 3rd round. Nothing against Kelly, but Mr Booth seems to be running out of talent to ruin.
