But it comes after Whyte beat Franklin in a disputed decision in November, which AJ was ringside to watch.

Promoter Eddie Hearn more than hinted that the victor would earn the right to welcome Joshua back to the ring.

So when Franklin was selected over Whyte, the former WBC world title challenger was left fuming.

But Joshua responded to iD Boxing: “He’s not my mate.

“I just think he waffles a bit; he has a lot to say. He needs to focus on his own career, focus on his own stuff.

“That’s just what I have to say about it, he has a lot to say.”

Joshua’s history with Whyte goes back to 2009 when he lost their amatuer slugfest.

But AJ gained redemption six years later by KO in their rematch and Hearn wants to line the two up for a trilogy decider in the summer.

Whyte told SunSport: “I am all right but facing the usual b******s, I just want to make some fights but it’s f***ing frustrating.

“Everyone was told, all the boxing fans, the winner of me and Franklin fights AJ, so this is a f***ed up thing.

“I would have been better off losing the Franklin fight and getting the AJ fight!”

He continued: “I know DAZN need content for their subscribers but why choose to fight a low-profile American coming off a loss instead of having a massive British tear-up?

“It’s no surprise to me that they have chosen April 1 for this battle of the fools.

“I faced Franklin, the most dangerous and undefeated version of him, and beat him.

“Eddie was promising him many millions to fight AJ if he beat me.

“It’s protecting AJ because they all know if he loses again he will probably jack it in and a lot of people will be left with limp d***s in their hands.”

Punching Techniques

There are seven types: Left Hook (right hook), Right Hook (uppercut), Cross (cross), Straight, Overhand, Underhand. Each punch comes with its own technique. Some punches require greater strength than others. An example of this is an uppercut, which requires tremendous force. However, a straight punch is much more powerful and faster than other punches.

There are also various punching combinations. These are combinations of punches that work together to achieve a specific goal. An entire combination could have several parts. For example, a combination of a left and right hook will result in damage to the opponent’s jaw.

Guard Techniques

A boxer uses his body to protect himself against attacks. He does this by using his legs.

Legs

A boxer must use his legs to defend against kicks. After receiving a kick, he will raise his leg and move away from the attacker. If the attack comes from the front, then he bends his knees to avoid being kicked on the side. But if the attack comes in the back, he will stand straight and block the kick using his foot.

Elbows

Because they cause great pain, elbow strikes are extremely effective. An elbow strike can be delivered directly or indirectly. Directly refers to hitting your opponent with the forearm, while indirect means you hit him using another part of your arms.

Hands

Boxers use their hands as a shield against incoming punches. To do so, they raise their fists above their head and move them towards the direction of the attack. The attacker’s fist is then in their face.

Knees

A boxer should bend his knees in order to absorb any blows to his stomach, abdomen, chest or stomach. Knee strikes can be used to defend yourself.

Feet

A boxer should not be afraid to respond to an attack. This will help him gain distance from his opponent. Boxers should also keep their balance when counter-attacking.

Stances
