Anthony Joshua Form
Anthony Joshua is a former two-time world heavyweight champion with a record of 25-3 (22 KOs).
Joshua landed his first world title fight by knocking out Dillian Whyte in the seventh round in December 2015.
He went on to dethrone Charles Martin to win the IBF heavyweight title in just two rounds.
The 33-year-old then knocked out Dominic Breazeale and Eric Molina to successful defend the belty and set up a unification fight with Wladimir Klitschko.
Joshua overcame being knocked down and stopped Klitschko in the 11th round, claiming the WBA (Super) and IBO titles.
He went on to knocked out Carlos Takam and Alexander Povetkin either side of a unanimous decision win over Joseph Parker that earned him the WBO belt too.
However, Joshua’s reign came to a shocking end in June 2019 when he was knocked out in the seventh round by replacement fighter Andy Ruiz Jr.
He beat Ruiz Jr by unanimous decision later that year to regain the belts, and a year later he knocked out Kubrat Pulev in the ninth round for another successful defence.
The former Olympic gold medallist soon surrendered the belts again though, as he dropped a unanimous decision to Oleksandr Usyk.
Joshua lost the rematch too, this time via split decision, but he rebounded in April with a points win over Jermaine Franklin.
Robert Helenius Form
Robert Helenius is a veteran heavyweight fighter with a professional record of 32-4 (21 KOs).
Helenius debuted back in 2008 and spent the first several years of his career fighting on European soil.
He recorded a couple of notable wins in that time, knocking out former world heavyweight champion Samuel Peter in nine rounds and beating Derek Chisora by split decision.
In 2017 he took on Dillian Whyte, the man he is replacing here, and suffered a split decision defeat.
Helenius bounced back with a couple of decision wins against Yury Bykhautsou, before knocking out Erkan Teper in the eighth round.
His win streak was halted by an eighth-round knockout loss to Erkan Teper, but he again rebounded quickly.
The 39-year-old Swede stopped Mateus Roberto Osorio inside two rounds, before stopping Adam Kownacki in back-to-back meetings.
Helenius suffered a first-round knockout loss to Deontay Wilder in his next fight, but last weekend he returned to winning ways with a three-round demolition of Mika Mielonen.
Verdict
Anthony Joshua underwhelmed last time out, but we are predicting a knockout here.
He has the power to flatten Robert Helenius so we expect this to be done inside six rounds.
