Description

Anthony Joshua vs Jermaine Franklin, billed as New Dawn is an upcoming heavyweight boxing match contested between former two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua and Jermaine Franklin. The bout will be held at the O2 Arena in Greenwich, London.

Background

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (February 2023)
Anthony Joshua has lost his last two fights, both against Oleksandr Usyk. Jermaine Franklin suffered the first lost of his professional career to Dillian Whyte, although the decision of that fight was controversial with many scoring the fight as a draw or for Franklin winning.

Anthony Joshua had negotiated with Tyson Fury for a bout in November or December, however the fight never came to fruition due to sponsorship issues, with Fury instead choosing to fight Derek Chisora. Joshua is now scheduled to fight Franklin as the first bout of his multi-fight deal with DAZN.
