Anthony Joshua faces Jermaine Franklin tonight in London, with the British fighter making his ring return following successive defeats to Oleksandr Usyk.
Now, he faces an altogether different test, with Franklin being given little chance of beating Joshua in their fight which takes place at the O2 Arena. Franklin made his UK debut in November, losing to Dillian Whyte on points at Wembley Arena in North London on a tough night for the American.
Joshua will be hoping that a win in this fight can provide a positive springboard for future victories, with the potential for a world title shot once again in the near future. The contest is being billed as a 'New Dawn' for the British fighter, with three defeats in his past five fights hoping to be forgotten.
