LEGENDARY boxing trainer Teddy Atlas has revealed his "wild" prediction for Anthony Joshua's fight with Otto Wallin.
AJ returns in a must-win against Wallin in Saudi Arabia tomorrow night.
A super-fight with Deontay Wilder lays in wait next year if the American gets past Joseph Parker and Joshua beats Wallin.
But Teddy Atlas - who first coached Mike Tyson as an amateur - has backed Wallin to flip the script.
He said on his podcast: “I’m gonna go with a real wild pick here. I’m gonna go with Wallin as a huge upset.

"I know that there’s also a risk that Joshua can knock out Wallin. Joshua is the bigger punch here, he might land a nice concise counterpunch which he has the ability to do and knock out Wallin.
"But I’m going to take a shot here and go with Wallin winning a decision at the end of the day.
"It’s either going to be that or Joshua winning a controversial decision, getting a gift.”
