This Saturday will have plenty of boxing fans tuned into their favourite sports channels as they join the 90,000 at Wembley to watch Anthony Joshua take on Wladimir Klitschko in a much-hyped boxing bonanza.

Anthony Joshua will have to be at his very best if he’s to unlock the experienced and battle-worn Klitschko, but the signs are favourable for him after his impressive record so far in his young career, winning 18 from 18 with 18 knockouts in a brief but telling three-and-a-something-year spell.

The Sports overlord must be a supremely talented screenwriter after plotting the rise and fall of Wladimir Klitschko. The Ukrainian was at the top of the boxing world, dominating the sport for ten years before taking the tumble against Tyson Fury in November of 2015 that brought an end to his reign.

It now remains to be seen what will transpire on an epic stage, where energy meets power in an event that would take box office gold any day. For what it’s worth, trainer Peter Fury, who masterminded Tyson’s points victory against a fearsome adversary, offered a tip or two for the young IBF heavyweight champion.

Asked about Klitschko’s strengths, Fury said: “Very, very clever, very astute. This is the first real, big heavyweight he's [Joshua] had in front of him that can box, and can also punch back.

“Wladimir ticks all the boxes. The only boxes he doesn't tick are his age. Is the desire still there? These are all big question marks. Has the loss to Tyson completely affected him? Was he at the end of his reign when Tyson boxed him then? Who knows what we are going to see?

“If we see a fully determined Klitschko, then it's worrying, and I would have to fancy Klitschko to win it.”

He also spoke about how Tyson Fury’s odd personality played a role in his tactics being a success, adding: “We constructed that game plan and Tyson carried it out brilliantly. Tyson is an elite boxer. He is very awkward, personified, so it wasn't because Klitschko couldn't throw anything, he just wasn't allowed to throw anything.

“But that's Tyson. Joshua is not Tyson.”

As to whether or not Joshua should look to disrupt Klitschko’s plans, Fury offered: “Absolutely, it's all about offsetting your opponent. It's a lot more to it. It's not about what you can do, it's what you can make your opponent do. Everything is astutely looked at.”

But he was quick to add that Joshua has to work out his own method ahead of the bout, saying: “He's got to come up with his own one [game plan]. They are all different styles aren't they. Nobody has got Tyson Fury's style.

“I don't see how Joshua is going to implement that. If he tries to implement that type of boxing, there is only one winner. I think Wladimir will walk away with it.

“He's got to come for that knockout and he's got to bring it early. He's got to put Klitschko in shock, take him out of his stride, and rough him up properly. That is the only way he is going to handle Klitschko in my opinion.”

Joshua poses all the power of a modern-day boxer and his startling knock-out rate is testament to his approach in the ring, and Fury asserts that Joshua has to stick to his guns, but should also be wary that his opponent will not go down as easily as his other ones.

“For me, Joshua has got the power, he is saying all the right things - 'I do what I do best and I'm coming for a knockout.'

“Joshua has got to be a lot more aggressive, even than what he has been in the past. He's got to really come to take him out. He's got to take it into a street fight.

“If he applies a boxing match to this, I think only one winner, because he's got to take Wladimir out of his stride, not give him the time to set himself, and not give Wladimir the time to get into a routine.”

Fury also suggests that Joshua should not hold back in the opening moments of the match, but should go straight in and launch a full-scale attack. “From round one, he's got to get going, start winging them shots. He's a big, powerful lad. One of them has got to land and I think he can unsettle Wladimir like that.

“Wladimir likes everything to be perfect. My opinion is - Joshua head down, hands up, and let those shots fly.”

He offered a great deal of insight as to how Joshua should approach the bout, but also weighed in on what he thinks Klitschko might do. “I think Klitschko will come out and show something different. I think he will come out also a little bit aggressive, but controlled aggression. I think that's what we are going to see from Klitschko.”

Fury likened Joshua’s current fights to swimming in a pool, but questioned the 27-year-old’s ability to swim in a rough sea, noting: “This is the difference in opposition. He's now in the middle of the sea.”

He also pitched in with a few wise words when asked to pick a winner, saying: “First four rounds, Joshua to knock him out, after then Klitschko to knock him out. I would have to edge to Klitschko on the sheer experience and if he wants it.

“But if I was a betting man, I wouldn't put money on it, because I don't know what Klitschko is turning up. I wouldn't bet on it.”
