When asked who he thought would win, Joshua responded “Ronaldo,” adding, “I love Messi and Ronaldo.” Messi, on the other hand, has that vision. I can see him bobbing and weaving, angles, but it’d be difficult. They’re both equally talented.’
Joshua refused to name a non-boxer he would like to face in the ring in a cross-over bout, adding, “I have no beef with anyone.”
When confronted with the prospect of meeting the Portuguese icon, Joshua responded, ‘Nah, I respect Ronaldo.’
