Anthony Joshua retains an impressive career record, despite recent defeats against Oleksandr Usyk, and will hope to continue his return to winning ways against Robert Helenius
Anthony Joshua has become one of the most recognisable faces in the heavyweight division in recent years, with the former world champion bidding to continue on the path to reclaim his status with a fight against Robert Helenius on Saturday night.
Helenius has stepped in as a last minute opponent, with the 39-year-old replacing Dillian Whyte after the British fighter tested positive in a pre-fight drugs test. Joshua will hope to record another win, with the former Olympic Champion odds-on to emerge victorious against his new challenger.
Joshua will be hoping to record a routine win, with greater challenges ahead as he hopes to become a three-time World Champion after losing his belts in 2021.
Anthony Joshua will face Robert Helenius in a 12-round main event at The O2 in London this Saturday August 12, shown exclusively live worldwide on DAZN – with fans now able to view as part of their regular subscription. DAZN is the home of all the major fights from the boxing world and Saturday’s sold-out event will now be available to watch worldwide on the service.
Joshua said he will not underestimate Helenius ahead of the fight, speaking at Wednesday’s press conference he said: “It would be silly to underestimate him, or anyone. I have to take him deadly serious and credit to him, he’s coming to roll the dice, he wants to win.
“Other Heavyweights that were mentioned, finance is an issue – risk versus reward, but in reality, that’s not all there is for him, so good luck to him, and shout out to everyone in Finland, I’ve been there before, and we’re looking to provide some good entertainment from top to bottom as the card is unbelievable. ”
Here is Joshua’s record in full.
