Anthony Joshua has weighed in at a career-heavy 115.7kg for tomorrow's contest against Jermaine Franklin at London's O2 Arena.

A heavier Joshua suggests he could be targeting a knockout win, using his added weight and strength.

When he is lighter, that often indicates he is prepared for a bout to go the distance.

Joshua says he has got his game plan, got his mind right and he ready to go for war.

The fight program will start around 6am tomorrow.
