<h3><span data-track-module="internal-body-link">Anthony Joshua</span> revealed that he had been &#8216;through a lot of pain&#8217; over the past two years as he looks to claim Daniel Dubios&#8217; IBF world heavyweight title on Saturday.</h3>
<p>The pair will collide in an all-British clash at Wembley Stadium and Joshua is hoping to prove just &#8216;how good he is&#8217; by besting his 27-year-old opponent.</p>
<p>But the former IBF, IBO and WBO heavyweight champion has had to overcome some tough times to fight back to becoming a mandatory challenger, after losing his belts to <span data-track-module="internal-body-link">Oleksandr Usyk</span> in 2022.</p>
<p>&#8216;I&#8217;ve worked hard and been through a lot of pain, and I&#8217;ve worked hard to get better,&#8217; Joshua told BBC Sport.</p>
<p>The 34-year-old broke down in tears during his post-fight press conference after suffering his second defeat to Usyk.</p>
