欣欣拳击锦标赛转播开始在直播 5 P.M. AND/2 P.M. PT from sold-out Principality Stadium in Cardiff where an estimated 78,000 fans will converge for the largest indoor event in boxing history.

 

约书亚, who went past the 10^日 round for the first time with a sensational knockout of Wladimir Klitschko on 四月 29, promised conditioning wasn’t an issue.

 

“I’ve been doing a lot more running. Maybe I’m starting to fill out as I get older and I’m starting to find my natural weight,”约书亚说：. “Who knows what it is. I definitely feel a lot fitter than I have in previous fights.”

 

The referee for 周六 contest is Phil Edwards and the judges scoring ringside are Michael Alexander (英国), Pawel Kardyni (波兰) and Ron McNair (纽约).

 

If Joshua’s previous 19 bouts are any indication, the judges might not be necessary.

 

“I’m not going to say I’m going to knock him out and smash him up and all these types of things,” said Joshua, who has knocked out all of his professional opponents en route to unifying the heavyweight division. “But that’s what I have to do.”
