Anthony Joshua, has the speed to beat Wladimir Klitschko and become undisputed World heavyweight Champion, say his trainer and coach; Roc McCraken. The Briton, who defended his IBF title against Eric Molina on Saturday, is set to meet ex-champion Klitschko in April.
Joshua 27, has recently begun working full-time again with McCraken, who trained him as an amateur, helping him win An Olympic Gold medal at the London 2012 games. "Without a doubt, he can knock anybody out. If he hits them hard enough, he will without a doubt, knock them out. Anthony can box, can move well, has great balance, and his speed is key as well" - McCraken told BBC Radio 5 live. "When you have his speed, they don't see the punches coming. And that will be the plan for Klitschko, that he just can't avoid or defend what's coming from Anthony" . He's looking forward to it. He's enjoying his boxing. The tests lie ahead but he's in a great place and we're more than confident that he'll beat Klitschko".
Boxing promoter, eddie Hearn, announced that Joshua would fight Klitschko at the Webly Arena on 29th April, 2017, a time when the Klitschko would have turned 41.
