Helenius, however, was not set to feature on this weekend's bill. "The Nordic Nightmare" was instead brought in as a last-minute replacement after Dillian Whyte showed adverse findings in a VADA test. 

Regardless of who is in the opposite corner, fans will be hoping for Joshua to produce a trademark knockout finish which made him one of boxing's biggest names. There is also the added element of a potential showdown with former WBC world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder next, therefore Joshua will need to make a statement ahead of what could be one of the biggest fights in recent memory.
