James: "You will see another Joshua"

“You will see another guy in the ring,” says Derrick James, recently a new coach Anthony Joshua (25-3, 22 KOs).

The Englishman, a two-time world heavyweight champion, is set to return on August 12 in London. He and James had already worked before the previous fight, where AJ got through Jermain Fraanklin with relative ease. The December clash with Deontay Wilder is already visible in the background, but before that, Joshua and James would like to spend a few more weeks together and defeat an opponent slightly lower class than Wilder.

“If there is something that, in my opinion, is important for my ward, I will not miss it, I will continue to push and work until he achieves it. I heard after the fight with Franklin that AJ didn't look very good, but he fought the way I wanted. In fact, he won almost every round. The more time he spends with me, the more you will see him change."
