you start Shadow Boxing how do I prepare for Tyson Fury what I do I go back in history I watch other heavyweights that I fought taller opponents opponents that are elusive also watch the coach who's trained in Tyson Fury how he prepares his Fighters and then I'll also watch Tyson Fury from a mental standpoint and understand where he's weak mentally and I'll combine it all together and go in there and do my best give it my best and I'm sure that should be enough Reddit how has boxing improved other areas of your life along with the success of boxing and becoming Champion I've had to go and do certain things outside of my comfort zone so I've had to like read books and better my English and represent myself a bit better because growing up I was a street kid I was very respectful at home but I loved being out and about causing trouble and all of a sudden now I'm this role model after winning gold at the Olympics so I put myself under a lot of pressure but it actually helped me become a better human being I think after boxing I'll be able to do acting because I've done a lot of like commercial work I understand what like production teams want I'm quite comfortable in front of the camera as well now posted what role will you go for I wouldn't limit myself but it'll probably be more romantic I don't know how much success I have in the film industry because I don't know how good my American accent is your American accent how are you doing AJ that's pretty good you want some coffee where's my money man hey I said where's my money man Instagram lfa198 who asked who to take photo I actually asked him to take the photo they were kind enough to give me some time I spoke to them they're trenched in English culture what a great day I was there to collect an Obe if I can remember and the person behind the camera was my mum it was a lovely family day next all right let's see some YouTube comments [Music] m24n AJ's body workout is green tick but how does AJ work out his mind need a list of things to read and listen from him I like the fact that you like the workouts physically but I've even learned the importance of the mind and reading for example Think and Grow Rich Rich Dad Poor Dad and there loads of podcasts as well it's more than I actually listen to the boss podcast there's not like one topic where it's like we're gonna talk about sports today it's sitting down with a guests and being open and Frank about your life experiences so first thing in the morning I got a little speaker and I'm just listening to what people are going through in life and you never know what life's gonna Chuck at you I do take in a lot of wisdom from listening to podcasts replied [Music] Damon Stefano what do you hope you're a member for in and out of boxing I feel like in sports we're easily forgotten unless you become this super super duper iconic legend and that's a challenge in itself so one of my main goals in sports is to be a successful businessman show people how to create longevity from their career in the ring you're making your bulk of your income while you're competing but once that stops your payments don't so through my experiences and my business etiquette I'll be able to pass on to other athletes because box is a small industry and hopefully they can all do well and support their families long after boxing because honestly I want to be remembered from the people that I've helped like people that have actually impacted next okay I don't look at boxing as what I do for a living I try and say what do I do for existence what makes me feel like I exist on Planet Earth is resting well reading trying to reach my higher self and that's what boxing done for me at the start made me become a cleaner person it's more than just getting in the ring and throwing hands there's a lot of stuff that come with it add underscore chapong I think that's how you say it what else is missing to make AJ versus well to happen all this what else is missing let's look to the Future that was the past why it didn't happen it would definitely happen I always say we're in the same division we're in the same era that means the fight has to happen 2023 is Lumen it's a big year for boxing we're all at the top of our division and that fight will definitely happen and bring a lot of light to the heavyweight division posted quora how would any Joshua do in the UFC I would get my ass kicked all credit to them guys but it's not my profession do you know what I mean and I'm going to respect them guys that have spent their years putting in time training grappling wrestling stand up take down submissions it's like them coming over to boxing I know I'll smoke them as well I did try Judo when I was younger very challenging and when like you're like 10 12 the last thing you want to be doing is getting flipped in the air and landing on your head and stuff like that so I stopped time to fact check Wikipedia personal life Joshua has expressed an interest in chess as well as reading as a way to reinforce his boxing and tactical abilities he was a bricklayer before taking up boxing full time everyone is a laborer that's what I loved about boxing when I started is that it had a crossover when I was a bricklayer I started off Waking Up 5 30 in the morning to be on site by 6 30 and start cracking on at seven boxing was the same hustle I'd be up like four in the morning and go running by five and training at 11 and backing and training at five and then back and that's the same hustle I'm on now so Brick Lane is quite similar yeah lots of funny stories about Brit Lane but yeah if I'm honest there's no similarities between chess and boxing the only thing I'll say is a concentration staying in it from the start to the Finish even when it gets tough trying to find a way to win and then I could probably say planning in your next move but boxing's unpredictable it's a matter of millimeter Instinct reaction chess is more strategic planning than you've got the time his overall favorite team was Real Madrid Football Club because of Cristiano Ronaldo as Ronaldo was a real Madrid player at the time yeah personally I don't really like films I'm not massively into sports but I just like certain individuals Ronaldo embodies that hard work and discipline I feel like that's what I base my success on I'm signing off [Music]
