Who is Anthony Joshua? Meet Britain’s game-changing two-time heavyweight champion
Anthony Joshua has been at the top of the British heavyweight boxing scene for over a decade now, and as he comes into the twilight of his career, he is aiming to become a three-time heavyweight champion.
Joshua is one of Britain’s biggest boxing stars, and alongside Tyson Fury, he has made a name for himself as one of the top attractions in world boxing.
