Former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has expressed unwavering confidence in his upcoming rematch against Dillian Whyte, scheduled for August 12 at London’s O2 Arena.

Recalling their previous encounter in 2015, where Joshua emerged victorious via a seventh-round stoppage, he vividly remembers the powerful left hook delivered by Whyte during the bout.

Reflecting on the punch, Joshua admitted that he didn’t see it coming as his focus was on attacking Whyte rather than anticipating the counter.

Despite suffering two consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk, Joshua bounced back with a win over Jermaine Franklin and understands the significance of the upcoming bout for his career.

The rivalry between Joshua and Whyte, simmering since their teenage years, adds even more intensity to this highly-anticipated rematch.

Fans are eagerly anticipating this critical fight, hoping it will reignite Joshua’s old tenacity and potentially lead to a blockbuster clash against Deontay Wilder.

With unyielding conviction, Joshua asserts that he will emerge victorious in this monumental battle dubbed ‘History of Violence,’ promising an electrifying showdown at the O2 Arena.
