“Look at the resume of Anthony Joshua. He has the best resume in heavyweight boxing, bar none. He’s always fought the toughest fights, he’s fought everybody that’s been a mandatory and he’s never swerved anyone” – Eddie Hearn told Joe YouTube channel
“He’s a throwback fighter but still, people will think he’s been spoonfed and has had easy fights. And he’s never had easy fights, and he’s a good individual, who works as hard as he can, provides for his family. He’s got a good heart, so I don’t see how you can begin to dislike this man.
“The boxing public, the boxing hardcore fans, don’t really like anyone that has significant success in that outer space, and it probably has happened with me as well,”
