Anthony Joshua returns to the ring for the first time in 15 months to face Jake Paul this afternoon at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
In one of the unlikeliest fights, the British two-time heavyweight world champion faces YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul in an eight-round heavyweight bout.
Many former and current champions are predicting that Joshua will win the fight.
Retired heavyweight world champion Lennox Lewis believes Joshua will knock out Paul in the second round, while Natasha Jonas, a former two-weight world champion, is hopeful that Joshua will knock Paul out within 10 seconds.
She says if Paul survives the fight, it looks bad for boxing, but if Joshua goes out and does what people hope and think he will, maybe it puts an end to what she describes as a mockery.
British heavyweight Frazer Clarke says he was shocked that Paul is taking this fight.
He says he has felt Joshua’s force and that Joshua is on a different level.
Retired two-weight world champion Carl Frampton says he thinks it might be a bit harder for Joshua to hit Paul clean early on than people think.
He says it should be a one or two-round fight.
The fight programme will start at 1pm today and will be streamed on Netflix.
