Joshua Wahab knocked out by Mark Chamberlain

Joshua Oluwaseun Wahab was easily dispatched by Mark Chamberlain at the Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk undercard.

Before facing the Brit on Saturday night, Wahab had a 25-fight career (23-2) record and had never even been knocked down.

However, in the first round, Chamberlain, also known as "Thunder," decked Wahab with a lightning-fast left hand.

Wahab deserves some credit for getting back up, but a sudden flurry knocked him down again so fast that he collapsed into the bottom rope, unconscious.
