Heavyweight boxing superstar Anthony Joshua was born on October 15, 1989, in Watford, England. Known for his deadly knockout power and athleticism, he is considered one of the best heavyweights in modern boxing. Having only started boxing at age 18, Joshua won a gold medal at the 2012 Olympics in just a few years of picking up the sport. He turned pro in 2013 and, in 2016, captured the IBF heavyweight title by knocking out Charles Martin.
His place in the heavyweight division was sealed in 2017 when Joshua defeated Klitschko, which brought him a formidable reputation along with the WBA and IBO belts. In 2019, Joshua suffered a shocking defeat against Andy Ruiz Jr. but regained his titles later that year in their rematch. However, back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk in 2021 and 2022 left him without any titles. As of the end of September 2024, Joshua maintains a record of 28-3-0 and is on a four-fight win streak. His last three wins were a sensational knockout against Robert Helenius and then over Otto Wallin. He then kept the momentum going with a second-round KO vs. Francis Ngannou, the former UFC heavyweight champion, which had received so much publicity.
