Joshua: 'Father Time' has caught up with Klitschko

Anthony Joshua says 'Father Time' has caught up with his heavyweight opponent Wladimir Klitschko.

Klitschko will fight Joshua for his IBF title and the vacant WBA Super and IBO heavyweight belts on Saturday at Wembley.

Joshua said: "Timing is everything and maybe Father Time has caught up with the former champ.

"But then I try and flip it. Even if he is too old, which I think he is, he's in a good place mentally and that's a dangerous fighter."

Klitschko lost his heavyweight title to Tyson Fury in November 2015, a loss which was his first defeat in 11 years.

The clip is from 5 live Boxing with Costello & Bunce on Monday 24 March 2017.
