Anthony Joshua expects Tyson Fury to try to provoke him before their fight in Cardiff on December 11. "He'll be trying to get under my skin, 100 per cent. I need to be stoic and calm because it's nothing personal," Joshua said, according to Dave.sport, citing an interview with the Mirror.

The comments came at the launch of new baselayers by his kit sponsor Under Armour. Joshua intends to embrace the pressure ahead of the fight: "Pressure comes with every part of this sport. Every training session, every fight, every expectation."

Fury and Joshua meet at the Principality Stadium on December 11.
