JERMAINE FRANKLIN has promised he will not go party-mad if he beats Anthony Joshua because he will be ready to do it all again in the rematch.
The American insists he will not make the same mistake as Andy Ruiz Jnr should he pull off a shock at the 02 tomorrow.
Ruiz Jnr knocked out Joshua at New York's Madison Square Garden in 2019 one of boxing's biggest upsets.
The American-Mexican banked millions for the rematch after grabbing the WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles but spent most of his preparation time ahead of the second bout enjoying himself.
And Joshua cruised to a points win over the sloppy champion in Saudi Arabia to regain the titles.
