    Can Anthony Joshua enter the US? He has a cannabis conviction

    He never went to prison, but he was was sentenced to a 12-month community order and 100 hours’ unpaid work for possessing cannabis. He wasn't charged with intention to supply, just possession.

      Possibly not, but I'm not sure he'll ever need to.

          I think minor convictions like this will be ok, if it was violence or theft related it might be a different matter.

            Pretty sure he'd want to fight out in the states at some point, it'd be weird if not .

              What about a threat of beating someone up? Is that considered minor and will he still be allowed to enter the U.S (not saying he threatened anyone, I'm curious...)

                I agree, but I did say need as opposed to want.

                If he makes it, he's going to be PPV in the UK and unless a new US HW comes along, he's not going to need to cross the Atlantic.

                  hmmm there were 700k arrests for marijuana in 2013 so apparently they do still care. its only legal for recreational use in 4 states. its legal for medical purposes in 19 other states but that still doesn't even equal half the states.

                    He should be ok in California, Colorado, Washington and maybe Michigan lol.
                    He could just fly to Mexico and walk into the U.S. if he wants in bad enough
