During the face-to-face between the fighters, Joshua revealed his chilling desire for the fight:

“I’ve just seen in fights when I can see someone’s energy frequency leaving their body. And that’s what my goal is, to do the same to you.

“You have that instinct. You can see it when you’re fighting. You can just see a small glimmer of someone that’s just about to start fading, and then you just keep exploiting that. Keep exploiting that. Keep exploiting that until some people give up, some people get knocked out. We’ll figure it out. 

“But as I said, for me, it’s not just going in there and being dominant physically. I want to break him down, spiritually and mentally,” said Joshua.
