    It depend's what type of personality he is! some people love being underdogs, because there is less pressure on you to perform! Anthony Joshua's next fight will be in-front of 90,000 spectators at Wembley stadium! and he is also the favorite to win this fight! (Potentially the pressure could get to him! i always remember when Carl Froch was facing George Groves at Wembley stadium infront of 80,000 spectators? even Carl Froch was weary of what type of psychological effect this type of situation will have upon him.......

    Wladimir Kiltschko has fought infront of stadium crowds many times before! with audiences as high as 50,000 if my memory serves me accurately! All the pressure is on Anthony Joshua in his next fight!

    I just have a feeling that Wladimir Kiltschko has been waiting for this moment his entire career! his one defining fight, where he is now the underdog! against some kind of Demi-god in Anthony Joshua! this is it! this is the fight that Manny Stewart prophesied would appear....

      Fighting in the UK under Hearn's crooked judges has definitely helped him win all those tight points decisions since he turned pro.

          Wlad has been on the big stage so many times before but for the young AJ this is the first and i actually think the crowd of 90,000 will make him take more chances than he has to.

              The thread is asking how much has Joshua fighting in the UK helped him and you are asking where has he fought besides the UK???????

              And why post a link of your little pic? why not just post the pic itself so there will be one less idiot on here...?

                  I never said anything about judge's decision other than his gold medal win. My point was fighting in your home country can be helpful in terms of crowd support, not having to deal with travel concerns in the lead up to the fight, having people chant your name can be a very empowering experience...obviously. You're just looking for something to complain about rather than take part in the conversation as it was.

                    Joshua becomes a legend if he beats Wladimir.

                      What arenas has he fought in with the exception of the UK's to give him this wealth of experience that helps him. He's fought exclusively in London for the most part right ? Prettt hostile ground right. If he ever has to go to AUS, NZ or the States if his promoter loses a purse he's gonna find out fast he should have fought on the road for exposure and experience, take Bute in Nottingham as an example.
