Anthony Joshua v Jermaine Franklin fight times and running order confirmed

With a huge night for Anthony Joshua on Saturday night, his fight will be supported by a high quality undercard with a number of recognisable names to watch at the O2 Arena.

Joshua vs Franklin is expected to take place at roughly 10:30pm, with a packed undercard having got underway at 4:30pm. This is folowed by the main card at 7pm, with Fabio Wardley's WBA Continental Heavyweight Title fight against Michael Polite-Coffie the main draw of the preliminary contests.

However, there are also recognisable names in the form of Campbell Hatton and Daniel Bocianski both taking to the ring for fights of their own. These will all get the crowd ready for the main event which sees Joshua hoping to begin a new chapter of his boxing career against Franklin.
