Anthony Joshua pays a surprise visit to the first man who got him into boxing back in 2008 and had a special gift for him.
Never forgetting where you came from or helped you along the way on you’re journey in life is probably one of the most likeable qualities a human being can possess.

The first ever trainer of Anthony Joshua got a surprise visit this week, Sean Murphy. He also received a great, well deserved gift, in this more real clip from Joshua where he uses language in parts and seems to be himself:
