[Applause] Anthony I try to think of some of the best things to say during these interviews I think the first thing to say is that was incredible that was an absolutely incredible performance and that is the biggest right hand I think I’ve ever seen live in a boxing ring it is what it
Is there was a lot of talk when this fight was matched that me and you spoke and you know you openly said to me like Frances isn’t on your level you said that it was a gimmick fight and that I said I I asked you and I said does that
Mean s of against you he can’t compete no what I was saying is on the route to the championship you should always stay focused and this was me stepping aside from that mission I thought it was something for the broadcasters and sponsors to kind of get behind cuz it’s
Just about entertainment but when I saw the fight with him and Tyson Fury I was like damn this guy can fight so I said I need a piece of that and um as I said he’s an inspiration so we wanted to welcome him we broke bread together and um he’s a
Great champion and we this doesn’t take away anything of his capabilities because in boxing is one or the other right he can come again do you think Francis can come again that’s what I’m talking about yeah he can come again I told him he shouldn’t leave boxing he
Can do well remember he’s two two fights in and he’s fought the best he he can go a long way if he stays dedicated but it’s up to him four fights in 11 months four gradually increasingly better performances this is the best performance out of the lot regardless of
Whether or not he is a two-fight boxing novice he is a former UFC heavyweight champion what do you put down to the increased and better performances in the the last 11 months the Ben Davidson performance Center and the Lee Wy performance that are with it as well right two team you know who’s there you know who’s there and I appreciate them highly Derek James Rob McCracken Angel Fernandez Joby Clayton Robert Garcia Virgil Hunter all these guys that I worked with and has
Helped me till this day um till this day has helped me till this day really um Shake me and I’m still learning still pushing I just hungry in it stay hungry and all that good stuff two time former unified heavyweight champion do you feel like you almost coming into your Peak
Now though I don’t know listen this is what this is the thing with boxing he say am I coming into my Peak it only takes one shot in heavweight division if that was me you would have been saying Joshua should retire Joshua’s finished but what I’m trying to say is that you
Should always keep searching for better I got to say Joseph Parker is one of my favorite Fighters he had it tough been Rel Relentless kept on pushing and look at him now so for me I don’t know if I’m coming into my Peak I’m just pushing day
By day and whoever knows where it will take me I’m just doing it while I’m here making the most of it because imagine in 5 years I’m not going to be fighting anymore it’s all going to be said and done and this will all be a distant
Memory so I’m just trying to make the most of it you said that you’re on that train to becoming a free time heavyweight champion of the world I know you want your gold back don’t you this was almost a step away from that Journey you’re now back on that Journey yes
You got to speak to Eddie match and boxing of course 258 management uh Ben Davidson and the team and they’ll shape my future man I’m just here to fight I’m going to go back to my cage lock myself away and then I’m going to be let out when it’s time to fight
Again so whatever they want me to do I’m down for whatever what do you want to do I just want to fight is that the winner of Fury usyk next yes it is let’s bring in a man that can talk about making that fight happen Eddie Hearn
Eddie I mean I know a lot of people say AJ’s back he’s Beyond back this is I think the best Anthony Joshua we’ve seen for a long time maybe even ever you know I’m so proud of him because there’s a huge amount of pressure tonight people
Talking about if he was to lose to Francis and ganu what would happen he rolled the dice because his Excellence he said if we win this fight we will fight the winner of Fury against usyk okay there was a show here in October it was called the battle of the baddest to
Decide the baddest man of the planet they should have done that in October they should have done it tonight because you’re looking at the baddest man on the planet right there you’re looking at the number one heavyweight in the world unquestionably on this form there is no
Man in the world that can beat him in the heavyweight Division I told you he’s going to come back he’s going to become the Undisputed heavyweight world champion there’s a brilliant fighter down there called Tyson Fury please please beat Alexander usk on May the 18th because I promise you this you will
Get the biggest fight in the history of the sport when Anthony Joshua takes the Undisputed World Championship Ben Lee the team but most of all Anthony Joshua has always stayed in the gym always worked never taken a shortcut in his entire life as a fighter he’s an inspiration to young people and I
Promise you he ain’t getting beat he is the best heavyweight in the world that was one of the most destructive Knockouts I’ve ever seen people talk about how Tyson Fury did against Inu forget about that what I said would happen happened he went in there he destroyed Francis andu this man is a
Savage a beast the best heavyweight in the world and I can’t out wait for him to beat Tyson Fury final word from the big man Anthony Joshua who’s alongside his manager Freddy conham is it going to be free time I don’t know you not put too much

aj will never be champ again little sausage
Joshua seems so proud ๐๐, he should retire. It's embarrassing he's taking a big W against someone with only 2 matches…yes well done๐คฆ
Thanks Fancya Ngunou for that's Million's
Eddie Hearn standing there proudly like it was a tag team match lol.
What would be interesting is if Fury beats Usyk then it a full circle since Fury beats Usyk, Usyk beat AJ, Aj beat Francis, Francis beat Fury(kind of)
AJ out here collecting heavyweight belts like they're Pokemon cards!
Man this dude is trash francis is not a boxer lol and the fury fight was a money grab and AJ lost to a chubby mexican andy ruiz did you all forget that ?
He already lost to ruiz and usyk twice so what is Eddie chatting about fool.
itโs What it is , wonderful ๐๐ฝโ๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐ช๐ฝ๐๐โ๏ธ
0:20 ๐ฅถ
He ain't fight Wilder when he was champ, he coulda been the champ๐
Joshua will smash Tyson fury ๐ฏhands down.
To all the people who say MMA fighters would destroy a Boxer in a street fight are crazy. That's not how it works. A street fight has no rules. Both MMA and boxing has rules. Here's the truth An average EXPERIENCED street fighter can destroy MMA and Boxers. Why? Because that's his terrain. No rules. Strike first. Strike hard and with anything. So there is your answer. Respect different disciplines n their rules. Dont compare n belittle others proffesions
He said thank you Baba. Thats so cool. Also i am South African but not happy he didn't single out Nigeria for shout out๐ข๐๐
heavyweights cant beat aj but usyk beat him twice xD
I must admit, Francis was wearing a beautiful pink skirt for that knockout ….. just beautiful for the mma community ๐
History will repeat itself. Usyk is the real thing in boxing.
Eddie hearns funny โฆ no one can beat Joshuaโฆ.. Ruiz beat him once and usyk did it twice lol guess them to are gods amongst men considering no man can beat him
Usky gotta win by knockout because if it goes to decision the Saudis are gonna throw it to him.
I said it now so you're not shocked later.
Aj gotta fight wilder before fury furys signed to fight usyk twice this year
Joshua is just annoying
Perfect first words! Awesome!

I like that AJ keeps a cool head & still holds respect for Francis even after winning.
Easy money!
AJ does not deserve another title shot. He deserves no fight with Usyk or Fury. Hes a joke.
gkrrrr
Finally an interview from AJ with no cringe. ๐๐ฝ
The number 1 HW unquestionably… Usyk: Erm what?
Simply hearns is an absolute clown.
Easy work for usik
Such a different interview when i loose against Usyk๐
When you win you are happy. What would you do if you lose?
