    • This upcoming Saturday will witness Anthony Joshua back in the ring, as he is scheduled to engage in a headline bout against Robert Helenius at London's O2 Arena. The initial plan was for Joshua to have a rematch with Dillian Whyte; however, due to Whyte's positive VADA drug test, he was disqualified from the match on the same Saturday. Despite the accusation, Whyte maintains his claim of innocence. Consequently, the spotlight will now be on AJ as he prepares to face the 39-year-old "Nordic Nightmare" Helenius. Curiously, Helenius recently participated in a match on August 5th in Finland, where he defeated Mika Mielonen in the third round. Remember to place your bets on the Joshua vs. Helenius match and other boxing events through DraftKings Sportsbook. Helenius (32-4, 21 KO) was last seen by many during his swift defeat at the hands of Deontay Wilder in the first round last October. It's worth noting that Wilder has taken down numerous skilled opponents in similarly rapid fashion.
