Joshua (18-0, 18 KOs) makes a third defence of his IBF world heavyweight title, with the vacant WBA belt also on the line, in the biggest fight of his professional career.
"You have to go through with it and see what comes out".
"It's really something that you've got to do what you've got to do". "I actually talk to myself sometimes and I say "Wlad, you're an underdog".
Then it was revealed Fury allegedly failed a drug test in February 2015 for the banned steroid Nandrolone, before ESPN revealed the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA), which was overseeing the drug testing for the rematch between Fury and Klitschko, had informed Fury a urine sample taken on September 22 had tested positive for benzoylecgonine (the central compound found in cocaine).
Uncharacteristically for a high-profile fight in the modern era, the exchanges between Joshua and Klitschko have been entirely respectful, but the 51-year-old Lewis warned observers should not be fooled because that respect will vanish when they are finally in the ring.
Ingles key to Jazz's match-winning play
Gobert, who sustained a hyperextended left knee after colliding with Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute, is ruled out of Game 2 . Boris Diaw and Gordon Hayward both noted that the team has discussed the issue and know they need to correct the problem.
That is because Joshua has handed down a ban to his mum as he does not want the added distraction of a worrying mother on fight night.
But for Klitschko, he thinks his experience will be the ultimate decider when he faces off against Joshua this Saturday. I don't need to defend my titles, I don't need to [worry about] losing a winning record. "You have to beat several big-name fighters", De La Hoya insisted. All the other heavyweights come to my fights.
Wilder said he plans to visit Kenya next month and Jordan next year over possible fights in each and vowed: "If it's safe I'll go anywhere in the world". While simultaneously bringing the career of the great Klitschko to a definitive conclusion. He's going for his legacy, he wants his title back and it's an unbelievable opportunity for me.
The 27-year-old Joshua's status as favourite for Saturday's fight owes largely to the belief Klitschko's defeat to Fury came because he is in decline and that he will struggle to resist the younger fighter's power and athleticism. "You better be clean by the time you fight me 'cause we're going to find out and even if you do I'll still whoop you".
