Anthony Joshua Returns to the Ring in London

Comeback Fight Against Jermaine Franklin

Anthony Joshua is returning to boxing after a break since August last year. The upcoming match will take place in London against Jermaine Franklin, who narrowly lost to Dillian Whyte. Joshua lost two consecutive matches against Oleksandr Usyk, but he hopes to get back on track towards his world title journey through this fight.

A win against Franklin could determine Joshua’s chances for future standout matches against Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. However, losing this fight could mean severe damage for the boxer’s career.

Details of the Match

The match will take place at London’s O2 arena with undercard bouts starting at 7 pm. Fans can watch the undercard featuring Fabio Wardley, Campbell Hatton, and Galal Yafai. The main event will start at approximately 10:40 pm after the ring walks are complete.

The schedule will depend on the duration of each undercard bout.

The upcoming match will be available on streaming service DAZN in the UK. Joshua left traditional broadcaster Sky Sports and his fight will be exclusively available on DAZN. Fans can purchase a subscription for £9.99 a month for a 12-month term, or a flexible pass for £19.99, which can be canceled with 30-days notice.

For the first time on DAZN, viewers can watch the event via Sky channel 429. Virgin Media customers can also purchase the event through their respective box, and it can also be watched from laptops, smart TVs and through the mobile app.

Joshua and Franklin on the Upcoming Fight

Joshua expressed his readiness for his upcoming fight in a recent interview. He said that while he hasn’t publicly stated the exact cause of his mistakes, nothing compares to being in the ring with him. The boxer claimed he still felt young and maintained he could handle fights without much punishment.

Franklin stated that he was confident about himself, having worked on different strategies and aspects after his loss to Whyte. He believes that he can beat anyone and is ready to prove his worth.
