Winning by any means necessary all that matters, Joshua says ahead of Franklin fight

Anthony Joshua is aiming to “win by any means necessary” in Saturday’s (1 April) fight with Jermaine Franklin at London’s O2 Arena.

The former heavyweight champion has laughed off threats of a knockout, saying it is the “worst time” to face him.

Joshua is eager for victory after consecutive defeats by Oleksandr Usyk.

“I have been putting in the work from the day I started this business. It’s going to be a good fight because he’s up against a real one, for sure,” Joshua said.
