I am one of Anthony Joshua's biggest fans. It is no secret that I tried to sign him after he became the London 2012 Olympic super-heavyweight champion as he is a fine prospect who one day may win the world heavyweight title.

The latest, the rather pathetic American Jason Gavern, was duly despatched in three rounds, a predictable outcome as he had been beaten 20 times before and stopped or ko'd in half of those defeats. As a contest, it told us nothing about Joshua's true professional potential, which is a pity.
