When Floyd Mayweather said training with him could have prevented Anthony Joshua from losing against Oleksandr Usyk - "I told him in the beginning when he was undefeated"

Boxing Icon Floyd Mayweather kept it real with Anthony Joshua by telling him that he needed to switch trainers. In a December 2021 interview, 'Money' talked about how training with him could've prevented 'AJ's recent defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.

Moreover, Mayweather claimed to have offered Joshua an opportunity to train with him prior to his defeat to Andy Ruiz Jr. in 2019. While suggesting that a great amateur coach doesn't always transition into a great professional coach, 'Money' stated:

"Anthony Joshua, I told him from the beginning. From the beginning I told him, he can come and I can teach him some pointers. Because a lot of times, this is just my take, the same coach you had as an amateur doesn't always make him a great professional coach." [sic]

He added:

"I told him in the beginning when he was undefeated, 'You've got some things you still gotta tweak because if you don't, you may come up short'."

Watch Mayweather's full interview below:

It is worth noting that following his first defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, Anthony Joshua brought in Robert Garcia as his head coach. However, Joshua's attempt to avenge his first loss to Usyk also ended up failing with the new trainer. He lost to 'The Cat' yet again via a split decision this past weekend.
