Anthony Joshua's first - and undoubtedly successful - defence of his IBF heavyweight world title will take place on June 25th.
His opponent: the undefeated American Dominic Breazeale.
Earlier this month, Joshua claimed the belt when he easily beat Charles Martin in London. It took less than two rounds for the referee to call a halt to the fight. Martin was no match for the Olympic gold medalist. Martin had only held the title for three months. In January, he beat Vyacheslav Glazkov to claim the vacant belt.
Breazeale is an opponent who Joshua might know a bit about.
The 30-year-old fought at London 2012, where Joshua won his gold medal. Breazeale exited the competition in the first round.
There's little doubt that on June 25th, Joshua will move to 17-0 in his career, once again - more than likely - by KO.
