When did this happen since he has been the same in public since the Olympics in 2012? Some of his detractors/haters said it happened during the Olympics. But the likes of Luke Campbell, Lawrence Okolie and Joy Joyce were part of the same setup. However, how come they don't speak the same way? The only other boxer from the same setup that's similar to Josh is Joshua Buatsi and that's basically because he's very religious and private.
Now, if we go outside the Team GB setup, another British boxer that's somewhat similar to Josh in interviews and has kept a clean slate is Richard Riarkpohe. And I'm sure those who know Richard back from when he was a gang member and terror on the street would say he's fake. Or is a Richard who barely makes £10,000 per fight also media trained? No, it's called growth and maturity. Like Josh, boxing also saved him from prison and it would be dumb to escape a destructive lifestyle and still want to act what you escaped from.
Human beings are just so fickle and hateful... and would do anything to try to bring the other person down. People hate what they don't understand and fear what they can't conquer. Do better. People grow in life and whenever you make progress, it's always better to leave the old in the past and get with the new. Stop hustling backwards.
