Unified heavyweight champion of the world, Anthony Joshua, seems in good spirits ahead of his mega-fight against Tyson Fury. The Englishman has turned into a motivator in his gym at Finchley Boxing Club. He even revealed the future heavyweight champion of the world.

Joshua has been the subject of most headlines in boxing over the past few months. The primary reason has been the enormous Tyson Fury fight. However, the unified champion has now turned into a ‘hype man’ to the other fighters in the gym.

Video footage broke out on social media of ‘AJ’ interrupting fighters’ sessions by hyping them up. Both fighters, Emanuel Odiase and Nas Ahmed, posted the videos on their Instagram accounts. The videos showed Joshua motivating the pair while they were working hard at their craft.

Joshua made a huge claim regarding Odiase. The heavyweight champion predicted a bright future when he said, “Yea, you see that right there? That’s Emanuel right there. The champ. Champ! Kidney shot. Come on.”

This comment from Joshua showed how highly he rates the young heavyweight. Odiase has also shared the ring with Deontay Wilder in the past. Therefore, this showed that Joshua is not just hyping up his training partners but is actually excited by their work.
