Anthony Joshua continues to stay safe from the wrath of the coronavirus pandemic. Despite having been in attendance with a victim of the virus, the English Boxer has fortunately not contracted the disease. AJ [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Joshua] reportedly attended an event along with Prince Charles, the heir to Britain’s throne. The two appeared for a Commonwealth event at Westminster Abbey on 9 March. Recently, it was confirmed that the Prince is diagnosed with the COVID-19. The Prince is now under self-quarantine, carrying out his duty to avoid letting the virus spread to others. According to sources, he is currently in Scotland. Joshua’s spokesperson spoke to the Daily Mail in London regarding his current condition. He said, “AJ is at home following government guidelines. He is fit and well, he wishes everyone affected a speedy recovery and a huge thank you to all the front-line key workers.” Although, we must not confuse the situation. Joshua has not been tested for the virus yet. He is just not showing any symptoms at the moment. WILL THE CORONAVIRUS AFFECT ANTHONY JOSHUA VS. KUBRAT PULEV Anthony Joshua currently holds the IBF, IBO, WBA, and WBO. Thus, it is mandatory for him to defend all these titles and not let the Boxing world go stagnant. Hence, he is set to defend his titles against Kubrat Pulev [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubrat_Pulev] in June. However, amidst the pandemic outbreak, most sports leagues are unable to carry on with their proceedings. Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Anthony-Joshua-vs-Kubrat-Pulev.jpg] Even the trilogy fight between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder has been postponed indefinitely. Therefore, there is very little chance of Anthony’s title defense taking place in June, as the virus still grows in magnitude. Nevertheless, the fight will take place, whenever nature permits. After all, the world will resume normalcy some time or the other. And when it does, sports will be back on track too. Do you think Anthony will be able to defend his titles against Kubrat when the time comes?

Anthony Joshua

ANTHONY JOSHUA Anthony Joshua: Net Worth 2024, Height, Age, Record, Endorsements, and More Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua or &#8216;AJ&#8217; as fans fondly call him has seen a meteoric to stardom in the heavyweight division. TheÂ two-timeÂ unified heavyweight champion has seen a lot of success ever since his professional debut in July 2013. Other than the traditional juggernauts of the heavyweight division like Mohammed Ali andÂ Mike Tyson, only a handful have had more success and have dominated the international boxing scene like the Englishman. He has successfully amassed a series ofÂ accoladesÂ over the course of his career. &#8216;AJ&#8217; won the IBF title in 2016, the WBA (Super) title in 2017, the WBO in March 2018, the IBO title in 2017, and the British and Commonwealth title at the regional level from 2014 to 2016. Athletics has always been AJ&#8217;s strength, from soccer to track and field. He has always been a prodigy. Joshua attempted to try his hand at boxing at the age of 18 after taking his cousin&#8217;s advice. Who is Anthony Joshua Anthony Joshua holds the prestigious title of being a former unified world heavyweight champion. His journey in the boxing world began in his late teens, transitioning from a footballer and athlete to a formidable boxer. Joshuaâ€™s transformation from a troubled teenager to a heavyweight professional is a testament to his determination and resilience. His physical prowess and skill led him to an undefeated streak during his amateur career, culminating in a gold medal at the 2012 London Olympics. Joshuaâ€™s meteoric rise from the amateur ranks to world championships has solidified his reputation as a powerful puncher and a formidable opponent. Out of the six heavyweight belts globally, Joshua has previously conquered four holding them all at the same time, underscoring his dominance in the sport. His achievements and persona led him to be a contender for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year, further cementing his place in the annals of boxing history. Anthony Joshua&#8217;s Early Life Anthony Joshua was born â€˜Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshuaâ€™ on October 15, 1989, in Watford, Hertfordshire, UK. However, he spent a part of his childhood in his parentâ€™s home country, Nigeria. His mother, Yeta Odusanya, is Nigerian, and his father, Robert Joshua, is part Nigerian and part Irish. He went to school in a Nigerian town called Ikene. He was 12 years old when his parents split, and his mother decided to move back. AJ returned to Watford to attend Kings Langley Secondary School. He was nicknamed &#8216;Femi&#8217; by his friends and teachers because of his middle name &#8216;Oluwafemi&#8217;. Upon joining Kings Langley Secondary School, Anthony Joshua inclined towards sports and doubled down in that domain. SHEFFIELD, ENGLAND &#8211; MARCH 21: Anthony Joshua trains during a media workout at the English Institute of Sport on March 21, 2018 in Sheffield, England. (Photo by Alex Livesey/Getty Images) The former champion excelled at football and athletics while growing up and showed great promise as a sprinter when he broke the 100m record where he completed the run in 11.6 seconds. Joshua grew up in Meriden Estate in Garston, Hertfordshire. The area was infamous for its crimes and drug problems. Growing up in this region, he found himself caught up in fights and all sorts of troubles as a teenager. Before being absorbed by boxing, he worked as a bricklayer. His cousin, Ben Lleyemi, took him to the Finchley Amateur Boxing Club in Barnet. This proved to be a turning point as he soon began training as a boxer here. Anthony Joshuaâ€™s Girlfriend and Children As of early 2024, Joshua doesn&#8217;t appear to be in a romantic relationship. Fans have continued to be curious about the star&#8217;s dating life throughout his career, despite the boxer keeping his private life out of the spotlight. In 2022 AJ&#8217;s supporters were sent into a frenzy when he made an appearance at a UFC show in London wearing what looked like a wedding ring. It was later revealed, however, that the piece of jewelry was actually a Â£300 Oura Ring &#8211; a hi-tech fitness tracker. AJ has been linked to a number of famous women since embarking on his sporting career, including supermodels Cara Delevingne and Bella Hadid. In October 2023 the boxer dismissed rumors of any A-list flings that have hit the headlines, saying: &#8220;I havenâ€™t actually been with any of those girls, by the way.&#8221; AJ then admitted that he was dating, but nobody famous. He said: &#8220;Iâ€™ve had girlfriends, but you could be in the local supermarket or in the local petrol station when we meet.&#8221;Â  Joshua himself once said he doesn&#8217;t have a lot of time for girlfriends, and couldn&#8217;t see himself settling down until his boxing career is over. He once said, &#8220;If people can ride with me for the next 10 to 12 years I would really appreciate it, but if they can&#8217;t foresee the future I&#8217;d rather they jump off the boat because I can&#8217;t stop for no one right now.&#8221; One former girlfriend who does play a significant part in AJ&#8217;s life is Nicole Osbourne, the mother of his son, named Joseph Bayley Temiloluwa Prince Joshua, affectionately nicknamed â€œJJâ€. JJ was born in October 2015 to Joshua and his ex-girlfriend, Nicole Osbourne. At present, Joseph is 7 years old. Joshua and Osbourne share custody of Joseph and maintain an amicable relationship. They are often seen together at public events. It was reported at the time that Joshua had bought a Â£500,000 flat in Finchley, North London for his son and ex-girlfriend. Although Anthony and Nicole are not in a relationship, the star has showered the mother of his son with praise. Speaking to Louis Theroux in the documentary maker&#8217;s BBC Two series, Anthony said: â€œShe&#8217;s an amazing woman, you know. We got together in 2005, we were about 15 or 16 years old. I have so much respect for her.&#8221; Anthony Joshuaâ€™s Net Worth 2024 34-year-old, AJ comes with a grand career record of 27-3. Ever since his debut in 2013, heâ€™s been under a promotional contract with Eddie Hearnâ€™s Matchroom Boxing. Their alliance has led to the fighter booking some of the most lucrative matchups of this era. For instance, his two-loss fights against Ukrainian fighter, Usyk in the years 2021-22, got him a combined total of about $100 million. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ots2-8Dxfl8&amp;ab_channel=DAZNBoxing His first Andy Ruiz fight from 2019, which he lost, earned him about $25 million. However, in the same year, for their rematch, which he won, he hit the jackpot by taking home close to $60 million. Last year, from the three fights he undertook, his Riyadh clash against Otto Wallin came to him with a victory and an additional $10 million. The Londoner, who has a massive following throughout his social media accounts is also said to be earning tens of thousands of dollars per month via endorsements. He has signed with brands like Lucozade, Under Armour, Hugo Boss, Land Rover, and Jaguar. As per records, his net worth as of December last year stands at a whopping $100 million. READ:?Â Anthony Joshua: All Video Game Appearances Anthony Joshua: Career Timeline Boxing under the promotional banner of Matchroom Boxing, Joshua burst onto the professional scene in 2013. He took on Emanuele Leo and beat him in the first round at the O2 Arena in London. Ring MagazineÂ named Joshua The Prospect of the Year, just a year after his emergence in the professional boxing circuit. JoshuaÂ bagged a silver in the World Championship back in 2011, which got the ball rolling for the Londoner. However,Â heÂ became a star when heÂ wonÂ the Gold Medal at the 2012 London Olympics against former World Champion, Roberto Cammarelle. Joshua conceded the onlyÂ defeatÂ of his career at the hands ofÂ Andy Ruiz Jr.Â The loss actively stripped him of all his titles. However, AJ overcame Ruiz in a rematch in 2019 andÂ reclaimedÂ his lost treasures, simultaneously becoming the two-time heavyweight champion of the world.

After Pulev, Joshua set himself up for one of the biggest upsets in boxing history when he went against Oleksandr Usyk on September 25, 2021. Joshua faced the highly skilled Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. Usyk presented a formidable challenge with his technical proficiency and slick movement. Despite Joshua&#8217;s efforts, Usyk outboxed him throughout the fight, resulting in a unanimous decision victory for Usyk. This defeat marked a setback for Joshua losing him the WBA, WBO, and IBF heavyweight belts, and also added an intriguing chapter to his career. Determined to regain his title again, he activated the rematch clause and went up against Usyk a second time on August 20, 2022. In their highly anticipated rematch, Usyk once again emerged victorious, securing a split-decision win over Joshua. The fight added another chapter to their rivalry and raised questions about Joshua&#8217;s future in the heavyweight division. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yQ1jippKqU&amp;ab_channel=DAZNBoxing After those defeats, he returned to the winning ways, defeating Jermaine Franklin Jr. and Robert Helenius, the latter by KO. In December, he went up against Swedish Heavyweight Otto Wallin on the Day of Reckoning card in Saudi Arabia. Anthony Joshua put on a career reinvigorating performance against Wallin by smashing him with powerful jabs that forced his corner to throw in the towel in round 5 ending the fight via a TKO. Now after a successful comeback to form in 2023, he now prepares for the Predator, Francis Ngannou in hopes of eventually getting a shot at winning back his titles. Anthony Joshuaâ€™s Contract Joshua made his pro debut in 2013 under the Matchroom banner. A 2012 Olympic gold medalist, Joshua won the IBF heavyweight title in 2016, the WBA and IBO titles in 2017, and the WBO title in 2018.
