The undisputed Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua OBE is a British professional boxer. He is a two-time former unified world heavyweight champion, having held the WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO titles twice between 2016 and 2021.
He held the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles at a regional level from 2015 to 2016.
In 2009, AJ won the Haringey box cup and re-performed the same triumph the succeeding year. Also that year, he emerged the winner of the ABA championship which he spectacularly did in bout 18 as a juvenile boxer then. Prodigious and astonishing in some perception, Joshua rejected £500,000 to go white-collar that year. He later mooted that renouncing the bid wasn’t difficult because he didn’t engage in boxing for dough. The year after, he triumphed in the same tourney.
In 2010, Joshua’s boom in the ring favored him a shot on the GB boxing team, and downstream that year, he championed the GB amateur boxing championship, which he did by trouncing Amin Isa.
