I had been standing outside the house on Seminole Circle, a shallow cul-de-sac off East Desert Inn Road for a few minutes, trying to find out the phone number but seeing it as dilapidated, I thought it might be derelict. When I heard a voice and saw a well-dressed middle-aged woman marching towards me, I began to erupted.

Joshua's sparring partner claims he was "left out to dry" by the people around him before claiming that he would have done whatever he could to get the microphone out of the two-time world champion's hand. As he appeared to suffer with the emotions of his second straight defeat, the 32-year-old British fighter went on an explicit tirade covering various aspects including his weight, his first forays into the sport, and the situation in Ukraine, where he was from his first forays into the sport. "I'd like to apologise on AJ's behalf," Campbell told SkySports viewers. He may not like me for this and his colleagues may not, but they left him out to dry there. That was so out of character but the people around him, where were they?'

Anthony Joshua is held back by security as he reacts furiously to being told 'keep it professional'

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 21, 2022
Joshua lost by a split decision to Usyk, who successfully defended his IBF, WBO, and WBA heavyweight belts in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night. The 32-year-old had been captured in a notably jovial mood as he returned to the team with members of his squad after staging a memorable and empassioned speech to the crowd following the bout. However, the mood soon became sour when a bystander called out to Joshua to 'keep it professional,' causing the former world champion to lose his temper and react with ferocious. As security held him back and escorted him towards his dressing room, Joshua shouted: 'Who are you talking to?Who the f*** are you talking to?Are you mad?'

Anthony Joshua lost by a hugely disappointing split-decision to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night, but the Briton was up 5-1 after six rounds. After losing unanimous decision to the masterful Ukrainian last September, the 32-year-old put on a much-improved show as he attempted to reclaim his heavyweight belts. Joshua got off to a good start in the game, perhaps nicking the first two or three rounds, but two of the three judges had it even at the halfway point, while others had to abandon the Ukrainian.

If Anthony Joshua defeats Oleksandr Usyk, he will become the FIFTH three-time heavyweight champion

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 18, 2022
POWELL, JEFF POWELL IN JEDDAH: Anthony Joshua (centre) - having been knocked out by roly-poly Mexican Andrea Ruiz Jnr and then dramatically out-pointed by Oleksandr Usyk (inset left) - hopes to stake his name by joining the elite band of three-time world heavyweight champions, despite being disappointed. Muhammad Ali (top left), Lennox Lewis (top right), Vitali Klitschko (bottom right), and Evander Holyfield (bottom left), the former champion who went on to become the only four-time champion. It would be a huge accomplishment if Joshua can join them on that page of the history books by battling his way to repentance against Usyk. But a place in the pantheon of all-time ring greats defies more than just being a triple crown champion. In Joshua's case, he'd need to step into the ring with and defeat Tyson Fury (inset right).
