Popular British-Nigerian boxer, Anthony Joshua, has opened up about his decision to continue residing with his mother even at the age of 34.
Despite his substantial success, including a £15 million victory against Wladimir Klitschko in 2017, Joshua chose to return to his mother’s modest two-bedroom former council apartment. In a recent interview with Louis Theroux, he shared insights into his strong family bonds and the reasons behind his choice to live with his mom.
Joshua emphasized the cultural significance of family support, stating, “I still live with my mom. In our culture, we grew up in our own family home, we support our parents.
“Why am I going to move out and leave my mom by herself, for some girl? Family is the most important thing. When a girl gets with me, she ain’t just marrying me, she is marrying my family.”
