Anthony Joshua chose Robert Garcia to be his new coach due to his track record at world level.
Former two-time heavyweight champion Joshua parted ways with longtime trainer Robert McCracken to work with Garcia and Angel Fernandez ahead of his heavyweight title rematch with Oleksandr Usyk. Garcia is an accomplished coach who has guided brother Mikey and Marcos Maidana to several world titles.
After being outclassed by Usyk last September, Joshua was encouraged to ditch his corner team and come up with a new strategy to beat the Ukrainian. He admitted he is happy with his new coaches and Garcia's addition has been invaluable to his preparations.
