Anthony Joshua and His Excellency, Turki Alalshikh, are the latest high-profile figures within the sport of boxing to give their verdicts for next month’s huge ‘Last Crescendo’ show, which can be seen live on DAZN .
The event is headlined by the huge light-heavyweight rematch between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol as the rivals do battle for a second time after the former took the glory last October.
Daniel Dubois will make the second defence of his IBF world heavyweight title as he looks to maintain his excellent form against the vastly experienced former WBO ruler, Joseph Parker.
Elsewhere on the show, Shakur Stevenson is in action as he faces Floyd Schofield, while Hamzah Sheeraz is looking to become world middleweight champion as he steps up against Carlos Adames.

As well as all that, there is also an explosive encounter at 175lbs as Callum Smith and Joshua Buatsi will do battle to see which British star is best placed to push on and challenge for a world title in 2025.
In the top two fights, His Excellency and Joshua are split when making a prediction as the latter has has gone for Bivol and Parker with His Excellency selecting Beterbiev and Dubois.
Both are in agreement when selecting Smith and Stevenson, but there is a difference in the middleweight fight with His Excellency choosing Sheeraz to Joshua’s pick of Adames.
In another fascinating fight at 154lbs, His Excellency believes Vergil Ortiz will be too good for Israil Madrimov, but Joshua has given his backing to the Uzbek.
