Amidst the rumors of the Deontay Wilder fight, Anthony Joshua is currently enjoying his break after putting down Robert Helenius last month. The two-time former Heavyweight champion was spotted in Italy, where he could be seen following the footsteps of Jake Paul‘s girlfriend. Recently, Jutta Leerdam walked on the runway for the first time, for the well-known fashion powerhouse, Hugo Boss AG, which is usually advertised as Boss. Following the 5-time Speed Skating champion, Joshua also made his runway debut at the Milan Fashion Week.

After the Fashion Week, many people at Boss were impressed by the way Joshua carried himself on the runway. So much so, that they even handed him over another modeling gig where he wore a trench coat with brown fur while holding a handbag in one hand. The fans had interesting responses to this spectacle.

One of the fans stated that Joshua’s rival, Tyson Fury, should get his hands on this footage.

Another fan speculates that these are the things that Joshua really enjoys instead of fighting. He sticks to boxing so that he can get the opportunity to do these gigs and live a celebrity life.

One fan made a joke about him looking like a witch in the trench coat. They said that it’d be fatal if somebody took his name five times in front of a mirror.

No matter what the fans say, being a boxer and trying something new like walking on a runaway does require a lot of courage. It’s commendable that Joshua didn’t back down from trying a new thing, he was aware of the criticism he’d get for doing this but went ahead and did it anyway. What are your thoughts about this?
