Professional boxing is one of the few sports that its brave competitors can get legally killed in and some of the comments from Joshua this week have been reprehensible.
Anthony Joshua will have to be very careful wherever he goes in the world moving forward (not just in the UK) following comments insinuating he is looking to kill Jake Paul in the boxing ring this week.
They have already gotten on the wrong side of some very powerful people around the world and incited them it appears.
Joshua is reminded that professional boxing is a sport first and foremost.
People in the UK and around the world will catch up with him soon, rest assured, to remind him personally of that in person.
Anthony Joshua Will Find Himself In Serious Real Danger Not In A Boxing Ring Soon The Way He Is Talking
The fight this week is not everyone’s cup of tea but it has brought a lot of new fans to boxing, and, the world’s largest commercial platform Netflix, have brought in once again a lot of new fans to the sport of boxing.
Which is a great thing for the sport and prospects and all levels of boxing.
The more eyeballs on boxing the better.
As for the contest in question, Jake Paul is now a far less of an underdog than when he started out as when the fight was announced.
As regards Joshua, Tyson Fury and many others have had no time for the comments so far this week.
