Anthony Joshua who made the confession during a chat with BBC Sport said that it would be wrong for him not to admit that there’s no pressure ahead of the fight.

“It would be wrong for me to say there’s no pressure, that would be a lie.”
When asked what it would mean to win back the titles:”Nothing. It ain’t that big of a big deal.
“For everyone else, it is. You’re only as good as your last fight. Once I win, [it will be] what’s next?”
