Anthony Joshua vs. Robert Helenius live stream in Canada
Anthony Joshua is back in a boxing ring tonight when he squares off against veteran heavyweight Robert Helenius.
The Brit was scheduled for another instalment of his long-running intense feud with London rival Dillian Whyte, only for that bout to be called off following “adverse analytical findings” in an anti-doping test from Whyte.
The experienced Helenius, 39, last fought only a week ago in his native Finland and accepted a late call to step in at the O2 Arena.

What happened to Joshua vs. Whyte?
Anthony Joshua was originally scheduled to fight Dillian Whyte, but Whyte failed the customary drug test just ahead of the weigh-in. Whyte’s fate is hotly debated, with many pundits calling for an indefinite ban. Whyte reportedly contended the result by noting that this was an optional drug test he agreed to, conducted by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association. He notes how odd the agreement would be for someone knowingly taking drugs. As such, the boxer is calling foul on the result, claiming he never took the drug VADA claimed he tested positive for. Notably, Whyte was subject to a similar mishap in 2019 and later cleared his name. However, he served a two-year ban from 2012 to 2014 for drug use, a ruling that was ultimately upheld and uncontested. The show promoters worked quickly to substitute Robert Helenius. Joshua vs. Helenius and all the undercard bouts will commence on schedule at the O2 Arena.
