Nigerian-born IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, 26, says he's ready to face Vladimir Klitschko who has previously held the WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF titles.
Joshua said facing Klitschko now would be part of his "one year plan" and he said it's "just another fight" like it's nothing.
Still on the impending heavyweight bout with the Ukrainian, Joshua made reference to his opponents whom were all expected to defeat him but...
He said:
"They say that about all the opponents and when you beat them they say they're over the hill."
"I feel comfortable fighting Klitschko, it's just another fight for me."Joshua also said that Tyson Fury winning a belt has opened up the heavyweight division and fighters including current WBC Champion Deontay Wilder have helped get it "bubbling again".
No date has been fixed for the fight yet but sure thing is it's going to happen this year Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, confirms.
