And Joshua revealed that his “OG” ideas were inspiring him ahead of his blockbuster rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.
AJ posted a photo of Chisora on Instagram along with: “This is my OG!
“He led and led! He is a driving force for me and for the young boxers who come up through the ranks!
“It’s important to respect our people while they are still here!”

Joshua is back in the gym ahead of his attempt to clinch the WBA (Super), IBF, WBO and IBO titles, having lost to Ukraine’s Usyk in September.
The fight is expected to take place early next year and promoter Eddie Hearn has recently been to the Middle East to look at potential locations.
