Heavyweights Anthony Olufemi Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko meet tonight in a bout which pits the
young and seemingly invincible champion against the ageing and deposed former title-holder.
The Briton’s International Boxing Federation title and the vacant WBA, IBO belts will be disputed in the most significant heavyweight fight ever to be held in Britain, which will reportedly earn the pair upwards of $13 million each.
Joshua, 27, has shown no signs of strain in dealing with the scale of Saturday’s bout.
A crowd of over 90,000, Britain’s largest attendance for a boxing event since 1939 — is expected at London’s Wembley Stadium, with millions more watching on television in over 140 countries
“It’s a military mindset,” said Joshua, the 2012 Olympic gold medallist. “I’m a fighter. I’m not caught up with the entertainment.”
Joshua does not even see this as being the most important fight he will ever have.
“I don’t think so, because it won’t be the end of my career,” he explained.
