Anthony Joshua is on fire in recent times and not in a good way, he was lit up on fire essentially in his last fight in a public execution.
When that right hand hit home on Joshua last year from Daniel Dubois is signalled a new era of new heavyweights in the division breaking through with the likes of Dubois and others.
It also cost Joshua his IBF heavyweight title at the time but the nature of the knockout was so heavy that it is impossible to say how he will have shown repair since then and the night in question in the upcoming contest with Mr. Paul.
Dubois since lost only to one of the all time greats in Oleksandr Usyk earlier this year, someone Joshua has last to as well in recent years multiple times and Joshua had been knocked down and knocked out that before as well by Andy Ruiz.

Heavyweights hit totally different and that power Dubois connected on Joshua last year was the equivalent of a car crash for him, no one knows how a car crash victim will be after a car accident like that.
The same is true of Joshua.
Errol Spence for instance is washed and finished more or less from his Ferrari accident years ago, Terence Crawford bust him up to put one final nail in his casket as a high level professional boxing world champion.
Time will tell how Joshua emerged from the rubble and car crash of only last year, when he steps into the unforgiving ropes of the hurt business on December 19th against Paul.
He’s also coming into this off the back of surgery, time will tell what unfolds on the night.
Paul is being pushed by top flight heavyweight contenders in sparring at the moment as well — which is a good thing. He will get the adequate rest before the fight, no weight limit for him in this one.
There is for Joshua though — has to be less than 244 pounds on fight night.
Paul vs Joshua to some might be marketing vs knockout reality, for who, time will tell.
All the pressure is on Joshua at the end of the day.
