*It was reported on September 29th that Ortiz failed another drugs test which was carried out by VADA, part of the [[WBC]] clean programme. It was believed that the drugs in question were diuretics chlorothaizide and hydrochlorothiazide, which are used to treat high blood pressure, but can also be used as masking agents for performance-enhancing drug use.

==Biography==
'''From Joshua's Official website:'''

Anthony grew up in Watford and moved to the capital when he was 17. A year later he was introduced to boxing by his cousin, who took him along to the Finchley ABC to start training.

Being a naturally gifted sportsman, Anthony played football at a high level and, with the stamina and speed he possessed, he could regularly run the 100m in less than 11 seconds. However, boxing was his passion and Anthony quickly rose through the ranks.

He became Senior ABAE Champion at 91+kg in May 2010 and was added to GB Boxing’s Development Squad. In November that year he became Champion of Great Britain, defeating Amin Isa.
[[File:Joshua- Leo 183178604.jpg|right|thumb|275px|Anthony Joshua vs Emanuele Leo: 5 Oct 2013]]
In 2011, Anthony retained his ABAE title and reached the quarterfinals of the European Championships, as well as defeating the Olympic and two-time World Champion Roberto Cammarelle in the quarterfinals of the World Championships. Anthony went on to win a silver medal, securing him qualification for London 2012.

One of the shining lights from one of the most successful Olympics in the modern era, Anthony defied the odds during the final round of the super heavyweight boxing final, where he turned around a three-point deficit to claim the gold medal for Team GB.

He was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2013 New Years Honours for services to boxing.

Anthony made his professional debut on the 5th October 2013 in front of a capacity crowd at the O2 Arena in London, beating the Italian [[Emanuele Leo]] by technical knockout in the first round. [http://www.ajboxing.com/]

== Biography ==
A natural talent in the ring, Deontay “The Bronze Bomber” Wilder has rapidly progressed from inexperienced Olympian to world heavyweight champion.

Chiseled 6-foot-7-inch Deontay Wilder dropped out of college and turned to boxing in 2005 to support his daughter, who was born with spina bifida. He was a quick study, winning the U.S. Olympic trials in his 21st amateur fight and earning an [[Olympics|Olympic]] bronze medal at the [[:Category:2008 Olympians|2008 Beijing Games]]. After winning his first 32 professional bouts by knockout, Wilder capped his rapid ascent by capturing a share of the world heavyweight title in January 2015.

Like countless other boys born and raised in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Wilder always wanted to play football or basketball for his hometown University of Alabama Crimson Tide.

However, the 6-foot-7-inch Wilder’s goals changed in 2005, when his daughter, Naieya, was born with spina bifida, a serious birth defect of the spinal cord.

A freshman at Tuscaloosa’s Shelton State Community College at the time, Wilder left school and was soon working two jobs in order to support his daughter, who doctors said might never be able to walk.

In an attempt to earn more money, Wilder took up boxing shortly thereafter and was an extremely quick study.

'''Fast track to the Olympics'''

In 2007, Wilder won the National [[Golden Gloves]] title in just his 16th amateur fight and also won the U.S. amateur championship at 201 pounds.

He won the U.S. Olympic trials in just his 21st amateur bout, and earned a bronze medal at the 2008 Beijing Games. It was the only medal won by a U.S. boxer.

“His work ethic is incredible and he hits so hard,” USA Boxing coach Dan Campbell said.

Wilder, a.k.a. “The Bronze Bomber,” was simply following the lead of Naieya, who was walking by 2008.

“She’s my inspiration,” he said before the Olympics. “She’s doing so many things that the doctors said she might not be able to do.”

'''A strong first impression'''

Possessing tremendous punching power and an 83-inch reach, Wilder made his professional debut in November 2008, gaining a second-round technical knockout of Ethan Cox in Nashville, Tennessee.

Trained by former 147-pound world champion and [[:Category:1984 Olympians|1984 Olympic]] gold medalist [[Mark Breland]], Wilder made quick work of his first 22 opponents, defeating each of them within four rounds, including 14 in the opening round.

Wilder stepped up his level of competition in June 2012, facing former world title contender [[Owen Beck]].

Fighting before a hometown crowd in Tuscaloosa, Wilder floored his opponent in the first and second rounds, and twice more in the third.

He was declared the winner after Beck failed to answer the bell to start Round 4.

'''Climbing the ladder to greatness'''

Wilder defeated two straight unbeaten prospects in 2012 to establish himself as a fast-rising title contender.

He knocked out [[Damon McCreary]], who entered the ring at 14-0, in the second round in Costa Mesa, California, in September.

Wilder then gained a third-round KO in December of [[Kelvin Price]], who came into the bout in Los Angeles with a perfect 13-0 mark.

Wilder gained two more quick stoppages in early 2013, including a first-round TKO of former European titleholder [[Audley Harrison]] in Sheffield, England.

He then gained the biggest win of his career at the time in August 2013, knocking out former world champion [[Siarhei Liakhovich]] with a straight right hand in the first round in Indio, California.

Wilder ran his record to 30-0 in October 2013, knocking down [[Nicolai Firtha]] twice in the first round before finishing him off in the fourth in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

'''Winning a world championship'''

Wilder put himself on the verge of a world title shot by easily defeating two opponents in 2014.

He gained a first-round KO of [[Malik Scott]] in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, in March, and then stopped [[Jason Gavern]] in the fourth round in Carson, California, in August.

The win over Scott made Wilder the mandatory challenger for the world championship held by [[Bermane Stiverne]].

Wilder entered the title bout with Stiverne with a record of 32-0 with 32 KOs.

Fighting at the [[MGM Grand]] Garden Arena on January 17, 2015, which was also [[Muhammad Ali]]’s 73rd birthday, Wilder controlled the action from the opening bell.

Wilder’s superior reach prevented Stiverne from getting inside, and the Bronze Bomber came close to finishing off the champion in the second and seventh rounds.

Wilder failed to keep his KO streak alive, but he easily won a 12-round unanimous decision to become the first U.S.-born fighter to hold a heavyweight championship since [[Shannon Briggs]] in 2007.

== Amateur Highlights ==
Wilder had an approximate amateur record of 30-5.[http://www.doghouseboxing.com/Gabriel/Montoya_110112.htm]
