Anthony Joshua reveals the impact of his interaction with Cristiano Ronaldo

Inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo’s counsel, Anthony Joshua just revealed an unexpected highlight from his boxing career. Joshua thought back on this unique occasion as he gets ready for an exciting clash against Daniel Dubois at Wembley for the IBF World Heavyweight championship.

In Riyadh, you were sitting next to Cristiano. What conversation did you have?

ANTHONY JOSHUA: “It was about the health regime he follows to maintain his health and he gave me some advice. To be fair, I slept for 7 hours after following some of his advice (laughs).”

Globally renowned sportsman Ronaldo has long been powerful in many different spheres. Now 39, he participates in the rich Saudi Pro League where he and Joshua had the opportunity to get in touch.

Joshua squared former UFC champion Francis Ngannou in Riyadh in March, winning by knockout. He spoke with Ronaldo, who was in the crowd, briefly after the game. When TNT Sports questioned about their talk, Joshua offered analysis on their training and dietary choices.

He underlined how much he has accomplished in his career following Ronaldo’s guidance, especially giving seven hours of sleep first priority, which makes him most proud so far.

On September 21, two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua will be facing Daniel Dubois; Cristiano Ronaldo will not be there for the game. Joshua is sure he will recover the championship in this fight.

Joshua looked to be struggling after losses against Andy Ruiz Jr. and Oleksandr Usyk. But he has since recovered, aiming for a third championship reign and having won consecutive knockout wins against Robert Helenius and Francis Ngannou.

Cristiano Ronaldo on the other hand recently suffered a viral infection and did not travel with Al-Nassr for their AFC Champions League match against Al-Shorta. Well, he has returned to the training after a huge management change in the team as Stefano Pioli replaced Luis Castro as the head coach of the SPL club.
