?We Should Have a Rematch?: Michael Phelps Shattered Heavyweight Champion Anthony Joshua?s Unbeaten Record in 2018

Anthony Joshua and Michael Phelps are icons in their respective sports. While one is a British professional boxer and two-time former unified world heavyweight champion, the other is the swimming GOAT. Having won multiple titles and broken several records, the two are undeniably the best in their fields.

Coming from two different sporting backgrounds, the two hardly get time to interact. However, back in 2018, when the two got a chance to interact, they had a fun time. Though the encounter brings back many pleasant memories for them and their fans, can Joshua say the same?

Phelps gave Joshua a tough time?

By 2018, Joshua had already proven his dominance in the boxing arena. There was no stopping the boxing champ, not until he met the American sensation and the ‘Flying Fish’.

The boxing legend’s winning streak came to a halt when he decided to compete against Phelps, but not in the ring. Competing against the GOAT himself was not an easy task. All in good humor, Joshua lost the match, but the legends had a great time together.

Commemorating the day, Phelps later took to Instagram to share their picture. Reminiscing the day, Phelps wrote, “Got to hop in the water for a swim w my man Anthony Joshua. Had great chats and taught him a few things about the pool!” Phelps further added, pulling?his friend’s leg, “Next time, you get to choose who you want to race… or if we should have a rematch!” The fans will surely be delighted if the legends unite for a rematch.

The bond between Joshua and Michael Phelps travels beyond the sporting arena

The two share a very cordial bond and respect for each other. Back in 2016, Joshua was captured alongside Phelps.

After spending some moments together, the two were pictured hanging out together during the Rio Olympics. The boxer also showed his support for the swimming legend. Though Joshua was rooting for Team GB, he also wished the best for his swimmer friend.
