Saturday 29 April 2017 21:57, UK
Everything you need to know about Anthony Joshua's heavyweight unification clash with Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley on Saturday night, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
Background
IBF champion Joshua is already facing a defining moment in his 18-fight career as he prepares to defend his belt against Klitschko, with the vacant WBA 'super' title also on the line at the national stadium.
'AJ' has been heralded as the future ruler of the top division, but must firstly overcome the former unified champion, who is attempting to become a world title holder for a third time.
Concerns have been raised about whether the 27-year-old Joshua is ready to take a substantial step-up in class against Klitschko, while others have suggested the 41-year-old Ukrainian is finally nearing retirement.
These questions will be answered when the first bell rings this weekend at 10pm, with a 90,000 crowd and a worldwide audience waiting to see the outcome of Britain's biggest heavyweight fight.
