‘I Was Motivated to do the Wrong Thing’ – Anthony Joshua Looks Back at Tough Times in His Life

Anthony Joshua is the face of modern heavyweight boxing. In no time, ‘AJ’ has accrued vast fame and glory and reached the pinnacle of the sport.

Over the course of his extensive boxing run, he has solidified himself as a brand. He is one of the most prolific modern-day boxers, with a vast fan following on social media.

Just like his pro-boxing run, the Brit keeps his social media game on top too. He constantly posts his workout and training videos to lure his fans.

Recently, ‘AJ’ posted a motivational video on his social handle, talking about how he overcame his affliction.

“You know I went through a turbulent time in my life when I wasn’t so motivated or I was motivated to do the wrong things but I put my energy in some positive affirmations, some positive things and even though it gets tough sometimes, it keeps me pushing down the rope because hard work does pay off,” said Joshua.

This is not the first time Joshua has shared a video to motivate his fans. In the past, he has shared several anecdotes from his life, talking about his hardships and how he overcame them.

In the above video, ‘AJ’ admitted that the wrong side has tempted him in the past, but a positive energy inside him kept him on the right track. He knows the importance of sheer hard work, which is why he is one of the most hardworking fighters in the combat sports universe.

For now, Joshua is the unified heavyweight champion of the world. He has his eyes firmly set on walking down as the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world in 2021.

Can Anthony Joshua cement himself as the best ever to step inside the ring?

With his unmatched prowess and vicious power, the Brit has already caught the attention of boxing enthusiasts around the world. He exhibits a staggering track record of 24 wins and just a single loss. Moreover, out of his 24 wins, 22 have come via T/KO’s.

Joshua is unquestionably an eye-catching heavyweight, but he’ll only establish himself as the best ever after bagging the undisputed heavyweight champion tag. This year, the 31-year-old will put his prowess to test against arch-foe Tyson Fury.

This fight will shape the division and determine the best heavyweight of this century. Needless to say, Joshua will put in the hard work of his life to build his own legacy.
