NEW YORK _ Anthony Joshua is the world heavyweight boxing champion, but thus far his professional world has been limited to fights in his native Great Britain.
That will change on June 1 when he makes his American debut at Madison Square Garden against Andy Ruiz Jr., a matchup that on paper should prove to be less of a career milestone for Joshua than the site itself.
"When I started watching boxing, naturally I gravitated toward the history of the U.S.A. _ Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, they all boxed out of the U.S.A.," he told Newsday on Monday at MSG Networks' studios during a promotional visit to New York.
