Live from Wembley Stadium. Quite possibly the fight of the year. Unbeaten IBF Heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua will be looking to show the world he is the real deal as he takes on Wladimir Klitschko for the IBF and WBA belts. Wlad will be hoping to prove there is life in the old dog yet. Who wins? You decide! No, scratch that, they decide! Even the BBC are getting in on the hype job, with a one hour documentary going out just now, despite the fight being on sKY.  |

I'm looking forward to this.
People are saying Joshua will win but these people were confident that Hate would smash Belle's and look how that turned out. You never know.
I hope he wins, it's much better for the sport if he wins. Boxing is the biggest it's ever been in UK right now and it all started because of Joshua.
It's just plain good for the division as well because maybe next we'd get Joshua vs Wilder.

Yes you never know in heavyweight boxing, although you'd have to say Haye lost because of a freak injury.
I suppose the biggest worry for AJ fans is when you look at the number of rounds he has under his belt since turning professional 5 years ago, just 44 rounds, he is still unproven, if he can KO someone like Klitschko that will be a massive scalp though, we'll have to wait till Saturday to see.
On a sidenote, it is a good thing this fight sells itself, these two have been having a bit of a 'love in' since the fight was announced, that's not what boxing is about!
At least Sky have made the wise decision not to pull all the pre-fight hype stuff down off youtube like they did for Haye-Bellew last month.

Surely to Christ AJ can knock over that old tomato can!? He hasn't been knocked out for just over 13 years (after he was knocked out twice in a year), he has developed into a very cautious fighter, so despite his age still a tough ask for AJ to get the KO. It will be sensational if AJ could, I think AJ needs to as well to show the rest of the world that he has arrived and he means business. If he scrapes a points win, well there will still be question marks over him. I'm not sure if I want to see AJ knock him out though, I've never been Wlad's biggest fan, but it would be sad to see in what would probably be his final fight. |
