ANTHONY JOSHUA faces American contender Jermaine Franklin this weekend in a huge heavyweight bout.
AJ is looking to reassert himself at the top of the heavyweight division but needs to get a run of wins under his belt.
Anthony Joshua takes on Jermaine Franklin at the O2 this weekend
After losing his three belts to Usyk, and subsequently failing to win them back, even Joshua’s own promoter Eddie Hearn says his man’s star has fallen.
Back where it all began at the O2 on Saturday, however, Joshua can etch his name back into the minds of boxing fans.
Potential fights with Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder await, and there’s also been talk of a big rematch with rival Dillian Whyte.
But another loss will derail those plans, and Franklin will be looking to change his life forever with an upset victory.
