The British boxer Anthony Joshua is among the top heavyweight fighters in the world. The two-time unified heavyweight champion is capable of almost anything. As such, Joshua lost his titles to Andy Ruiz and came back with a masterclass performance to regain his throne.

Although the British boxer can do everything he wants to, he has his limitations. Recently, Joshua explained his biggest weakness in an interview.

However, he believes he doesn’t prioritize himself and claims that it’s his greatest weakness.
