Joshua vs Brezealea: who will win next Saturday?

Regarding  Joshua’s encounter with American Dominican Breazeale on Saturday in the city of London, Parker predicts that Joshua will win the first three or four rounds. Therefore, even if a Parkers vs Joshua fight will only take place in 2017, Joshua is interested in getting Parkers’ title once he beats the undefeated American Breazeale.

Also, Kevin Barry, Parker’s trainer stated that Joshua will probably beat Breazeale (17-0). He said  that “Breazeale’s a perfect opponent for Joshua,”  because Parker’s future counterpart had 16 opponents designed to make him look glorious., which implies that Joshua had not had the chance to encounter a real challenge.

Breazeale said to Skysports he will hit Joshua hard and with everything as it is written in his game plan made by his trainer  Manny Robles.  He also said Joshua and himself are two knockout artists  so “whoever lands first is going to win” . In the interview, he also stated that he was very exciting about the bout. Joshua should not expose the weakness of some sort during the fight, otherwise, Brezealea will take advantage of it.
