Anthony Joshua vs. Jermaine Franklin
Promoter Eddie Hearn said that he is ‘nervous’ about Joshua’s fight against Franklin. “AJ’s looking good but I’m nervous. People are saying this is a straightforward fight for Anthony Joshua but it’s not at all.” Hearn said to the media, “Let’s look at the facts, he’s coming off two defeats to the pound-for-pound No.1 Oleksandr Usyk but you saw the emotional side to AJ in the last performance and after the fight. “Franklin is full of confidence coming off the Dillian Whyte fight and he looks all of a sudden about 20lbs lighter as well. This is a big moment for Anthony Joshua’s career, people are talking about fights against Deontay Wilder, Whyte, Fury but he has to win on April 1.”
