"The bell rings, Joshua goes out there and throws a jab. Paul is going to be running around, trying to stay away from Joshua's power.
"Joshua's going to catch up to him, throw a couple body punches and hard jabs, hard right hands and soften him up.
"Second round, Paul is gone."
Lennox Lewis - retired heavyweight world champion
Prediction - Joshua
"If Jake Paul survives the fight, it looks bad for boxing. But if Joshua goes out and does what we hope and think he will, maybe it puts an end to this mockery.
"But there's no way Jake can run around the ring for eight rounds and not get caught. You are going to get hit, that's a guarantee in boxing. Can he withstand any type of meaningful shot from Joshua? No.
"Hopefully Joshua just knocks him out within the 10 seconds and everyone who has bought a ticket or ordered the fight will realise that top-level boxing is just a different kettle."
Natasha Jonas - former two-weight world champion
Prediction - Joshua
"I think it might be a bit harder for Joshua to hit Paul clean early on than people think. It should be a one or two round fight.
"If AJ doesn't hit him clean then I think he chases Paul into the corner and beats him up until the referee jumps in."
Carl Frampton - retired two-weight world champion
Prediction - Joshua
