By Jim Dower: Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) says he can see himself in IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (18-0, 18 KOs), and he knows how he thinks, and most importantly, he knows exactly what the 27-year-old British fighter will be doing inside the ring this Saturday night. Wladimir isn’t worried about defeat, because he’s already been there and done that. Wladimir says the pressure if off of him now. He’s no longer a world champion, and he doesn’t have the carry the weight and the huge responsibility of being the heavyweight world champion.

By Scott Gilfoid: Anthony Joshua (18-0, 18 KOs) is going to be knocked out by the 10th round by former heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko this Saturday night if he’s fully focused for the fight, says his brother Vitali Klitschko. Vitali believes that Wladimir is going to be especially dangerous to the 27-year-old Joshua early in the fight. This thought runs counter to what most boxing fans and writers are saying right now. They believe that it’s Joshua who will be more dangerous in the first half of the fight than he will in the second half.
