Anthony Joshua, 36, has recently been at the centre of intense retirement rumours after a fatal car crash claimed the lives of two people close to him. The incident occurred while Joshua was on holiday in Nigeria, the country of his parents' birth, and resulted in the deaths of Kevin Latif 'Latz' Ayodele and Sina 'Evolve' Ghami. Both men were not only personal friends, but also long-serving coaches and trusted members of Joshua's team.
Joshua himself suffered minor injuries in the accident. The loss, however, has been described as deeply personal, with those involved having worked alongside him for years through the peak of his professional career.
