Watch: Anthony Joshua Gets Hero’s Welcome In Nigeria Running Through Nigerian Streets Like Rocky Balboa

Anthony Joshua Gets Hero'S Welcome In Nigeria Running Through Nigerian Streets Like Rocky Balboa

Former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua is on the comeback trail after a vicious knockout loss to Daniel Dubois in 2024.

It was maybe the most brutal knockouts seen in heavyweight championship boxing of the last decade or so.

Maybe longer. That said, Joshua is training well again of course and is being welcomed big time in Nigeria to say the least:

Good to see.

Surely a big event in Nigeria or Africa is possible. The Martin Bakole fight is an obvious choice to make there or in Congo too.

These countries will only do very well from such massive boxing events in their countries during the global takeover of boxing in 2025 and beyond.
