Bristish Nigerian Anthony Joshua has told his mum see you on sunday as he faces Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley on Saturday.

The Nigerian Brit boxer goes head to head with his Ukrainian rival for the IBF world heavyweight title and the vacant WBA belt in one of the most eagerly anticipated fights of the year.

Even as tickets to the fight are the hottest piece of document in the land for this weekend, one person who won’t be in attendance is Joshua’s mother.

Yeta Odusanya has never seen her son fight and is not about to change the habit of a lifetime despite AJ facing the biggest night of his young career to date.

Joshua has previously revealed that he doesn’t like his mum to watch him when he is in the ring, saying: ‘I don’t really let my mum come to my fights. It’s not a place you want to see your kid, I don’t think — a fight.’

AJ posed with his mum beside his car on Wednesday and posted the picture the Twitter, along with the caption ‘See you on Sunday mum x’.
