Anthony Joshua (25-3, 22 KOs) criticized former coach Robert Garcia, who was preparing him for a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk. After one fight, AJ broke up with him and hired Derrick James.
Under the leadership of James, the former two-time world champion has already defeated Jermain Franklin, and on August 12 he will meet again with Dillian Whyte (29-3, 19 KOs).
“I didn’t feel like I was learning anything at his camp. It didn't matter to me whether I sat there for a very short time or whether I sat there for a year. They didn't show me anything, so I just did my job. On the contrary, with Derrick James, every second spent together in the hall, I absorb something new. Regardless of how our cooperation ends and whether we achieve success together, this coach is a real teacher. The time spent with him is very valuable,” said Joshua.
