Anthony Joshua believes a shot at his world titles “means everything” to Alexander Povetkin and says he can feel growing pressure going into the bout.

Britain’s WBA, WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion Joshua defends his belts against Russia’s Povetkin, 39, at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.

According to BBC Sports, he says his body has been “broken down” and “rebuilt like never before” going into a fight which is likely to be Povetkin’s last shot at a world title.
