"I'm going to dominate and brutally deal with him," promises Jermaine Franklin (21-1, 14 KO), who in twelve days will check the form, which Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) scored with a new coach.

“From the fight with Dillian Whyte, I learned that in Britain I have to give my all and win very confidently. Either knockout or brutal domination. Surely, as inferior in size, I will have to get closer. But I am convinced that he will try to go after me, trying to strangle me physically. This will suit me, because I can box on the counterattacks. I want him to be uncomfortable in the ring."

“This win will have a big impact on my career. I position myself next to the best, and in the future I would like to get a championship fight. I have never shied away from a challenge or competition, I want to bring heavyweight back to its former glory when the best fought each other. I have a lot of respect for Joshua, but this is a cruel business. I will knock him out,” Franklin added.
