Reports Afrique>>>Nigerian-born British heavyweight boxing champion, Anthony Joshua whose fight with Wladimir Klitschko in a Wembley blockbuster saw him rise to the IBF championship has said he is Nigerian and that eating Eba is one of the reason he is so powerful in the ring.
Anthony who said this in an interview with a fellow Nigerian in the UK, also pointed out that he has plans to meet with his state governor in Nigeria to see how he can contribute to the development of his people.
Anthony defeated Wladimir Klitschko yesterday in the 11th round in a match that has been rated as one of the most popular in world boxing history.
Hear him in the video below:
In a report by DailyMail.co.uk, this picture below was used to describe Anthony's Nigerian eating ties:
Anthony's feeding and training habit is something worth looking at. He allegedly consumes a mountain of food — that's 4,500 to 5,000 calories a day during training — to fuel his 6ft 6in, 17st 12lb world champion frame.
This picture does some explanations:
The new champ is a very humble being as he has shown in almost all his interviews. He also has a good sportsman spirit. Anthony speaking after the match yesterday, eulogized his opponent.
The new champ is a very humble being as he has shown in almost all his interviews. He also has a good sportsman spirit. Anthony, speaking after the match yesterday, eulogized his opponent, Wladimir Klitschko, calling him a "role model" in the ring. He also took time to appreciate all past heavyweight champions that attended the match, calling them by names and appreciating them for impacting his life from childhood.
This video interview nips in the bud that seeming sarcastic arguments making the rounds that Anthony Joshua may not be of Nigerian descent.
