“I remember how Anthony was preparing for the fight with Klitschko. He saw me and asked: “What should I do?” I answered: “Dude, go first. If you are the first, then no one will get close to you. And he won the title. But the bottom line is that he asked me himself. I didn't run after him and say that I had something for him.

Joshua has long arms and is strong. Be the first. That's what my coaches told me about anything in life - be first. Don't miss first, as you will be knocked out and it will all be over. If you hit your opponent first, let him worry about being knocked out,” Holyfield said in an interview with IFL TV.

Recall that in 2017, Joshua defeated Klitschko by technical knockout in the 11th round.
