Anthony Joshua has claimed that he will "crush" Eric Molina in the pair's IBF heavyweight title fight at the Manchester Arena on Saturday.
The British Olympic gold medallist will defend the belt for a second time following his seventh-round stoppage win over Dominic Breazeale in June.
"I'm glad [Molina] is healthy, God willing I manage to do my job and crush him," Joshua told reporters in the pre-fight press conference. "It is a breaking down job, everyone is sharp in rounds one, two three, but it is about being clever. Later on in the rounds I will start breaking him down.
"We are bringing currency back to heavyweight boxing, and respect back to the division and everyone wants a piece of it. Training is not about preparing for Eric, it is only going to get tougher so we train as if we are preparing for five fights' time. I will make him look like a novice."
Joshua has never been taken past the seventh round, winning all 17 of his professional bouts by way of knockout.
