Anthony Joshua, over the past few days, has been at the center of boxing news. The Brit took a stroll to a few boxing gyms in America to figure out what went wrong for him in his fight against Oleksandr Usyk. That said, he met the likes of Eddy Reynoso, Ronnie Shields, and more.
On top of that, ‘AJ’ spent some substantial time with all of these coaches and he even had a few workout sessions. Recently, he spoke to iFL TV about his experience with all of these coaches.
