Tyson backs Joshua to win
Boxing legend Mike Tyson has revealed his prediction for Anthony Joshua's upcoming rematch with Dillian Whyte. Tyson believes Joshua will come out on top, just as he did in their previous meeting seven years ago.
The O2 showdown
Joshua and Whyte will face each other once again at The O2 arena in what promises to be an exciting domestic bout. The fight is scheduled to take place a week from now, on Saturday.
Joshua looking for redemption
Joshua, 33, is aiming to continue his career rebuild after suffering two consecutive defeats. He will aim to avenge his amateur loss to Whyte and make a statement in the heavyweight division.
Tyson's words of encouragement
In the weeks leading up to his fight, Joshua received words of encouragement from former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson. Tyson praised Joshua's talent and advised him not to get discouraged by losses.
Grudge match on the cards
A resounding victory over Whyte could set up a long-awaited grudge match between Joshua and former WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, predicts the fight could take place in January.
Risk versus reward
Hearn acknowledges that facing Whyte carries a certain level of risk for Joshua. The finalization of the Wilder fight is dependent on Joshua's performance against Whyte at The O2 Arena on August 12.
