Malignaggi reveals the only way Wallin can beat Joshua

Former world champion Paula Malignaggi I'm sure that Otto Wallin will win Anthony Joshua only if he gets knocked out.

“The organizers really want to make the Joshua-Wilder fight, so Wallin won’t win by decision anyway. I think Otto needs to stop Joshua to get the win.

This is reminiscent of the story of Bernard Hopkins and Oscar De La Hoya when they fought on the same show. Oscar had to rob Felix Sturm in order for their duel to take place. That's what it reminds me of. I hope that we won’t have any strange decisions and that everyone will win well-deserved victories. But anyway, because of their rivals, there is always a risk when you do things like this.

It's hard to bet against Joshua. Even if the fight is close, it will work out in his favor. I'm interested because I want to see how much Wallin is willing to take risks, likely knowing he won't be given the decision win. If he's willing to put himself on the line to try and stop Joshua, then it'll be interesting," Malignaggi said.

Let us remind you that today the Joshua-Wallin fight will headline a large-scale boxing evening in Riyadh.
