Anthony Joshua, the renowned British-Nigerian professional boxer, has disclosed the reasons behind his decision to continue living with his mother at the age of 34.
After securing a £15 million victory against Wladimir Klitschko in 2017, Anthony Joshua opted to return to his mother’s two-bedroom former government housing.
During a recent interview with Louis Theroux, Joshua emphasized the strong bond he shares with his family and expressed his reluctance to be convinced to leave his mother’s house.
