Joshua vs Molina: Undercard, preview, fight start time, TV schedule

[smashup]

Anthony Joshua defends his IBF world heavyweight title against Eric Molina this weekend.
The British fighter will go into the bout as a huge favourite and could be excused for already casting his eye towards a blockbuster bout with Wladimir Klitschko.
But taking his experienced American opponent is unlikely to be a wise move.
Molina may have been referred to as little more than cannon fodder in some quarters but Joshua will surely be determined to not only win but win in style as he looks to send out a message to the rest of the division.

Full undercard
Conor Benn vs Josh Thorne
Marcus Morrison vs Harry Matthews
Katie Taylor vs Viviane Obenauf
Luis Ortiz vs David Allen
Hosea Burton vs Frank Buglioni
Scott Quigg vs Jose Cayetano
Callum Smith vs Luke Blackledge
Luis Concepcion vs Kal Yafai
Dillian Whyte vs Dereck Chisora

This is awful. How does Joshua get away with fighting this guy after everyone screamed at Silder for fighting a school teacher.

Have to agree it's what Matchroom hope is a "safe" fight for AJ with Molina only ranked 8th by the IBF.
AJ should have been fighting guys like this 12 months ago but what do you do when the guy just knocks everybody out? I said this ages ago about AJ...... that there was always the worry that he'd end up fighting guys like Wilder, Fury, Klitschko and Haye while he's pretty much still learning and never even been past 7 Rounds in a Pro fight.

That is why the fight against Wlad will be a big risk because AJ will be tested for the first time next year. Wlad will try and take the fight to the later rounds and tire out AJ.
