The Special One was in attendance to see the Brit claim the IBF crown from his American opponent at The O2

Mourinho surprised Joshua when he arrived unannounced at The O2 to see him KO American Charles Martin inside two rounds.

The Portuguese then waited patiently in the queue of well wishers outside Joshua’s dressing room to congratulate him on becoming the new IBF heavyweight king.

“Jose was watching the build-up and then decided, all of a sudden, he wanted a ticket last-minute,” said Joshua. “They managed to get him a seat and I met him afterwards.

“I’ve met him before and he remembered me. We had a good five-minute chat. I respect him. We were in the changing room and he’s a cool guy. He just congratulated me. There were some good faces there. I saw Jess Ennis, too.”

Promoter Eddie Hearn was shocked when he saw Mourinho and says his presence shows how big Joshua is becoming.

“We didn’t even know he was coming,” said the Matchroom Sport MD. “He just rocked up at half-six at the Arena and started texting people to get in.

“He then queued up at the changing room to meet him. AJ is a massive star. He is the new figurehead of British boxing.”

Joshua’s rise in his two and a half years as a pro has been meteoric and no one has boxed fewer than his 34 rounds to become world heavyweight champion.

Even Joshua, 26, was impressed by this stat as he relaxed in his fight hotel in Canary Wharf yesterday.

“Yeah, that is quick,” he said. “That’s crazy. Dillian Whyte was the only fight which went seven rounds. Everything else has been one to three.”

Like Jose Mourinho turning up out of the blue and wanting to sit ringside. The football manager had even queued outside Joshua’s dressing room to see him. “He had been watching the build-up to the fight, and then wanted last-minute tickets,” revealed Joshua. “They managed to get him a seat, he came on his own, I think. I met him before and he remembered me after we’d had a good five-minute chat. I walked back to the changing room with him and he is a cool guy. He congratulated me and said ‘well done’. I think he is going to United.

@op, please put the guy's Nigerian name to let the whole world know he is a Nigerian first, before becoming a Brit. Bunch of hypocrites want to claim all the glory for themselves just because he is doing great, but the story is going to be different If the guy were to be involved in negative stuffs. They will be like " Nigerian's are always involved in fraudulent activities", "Nigerian's this, Nigerian's that. GOD bless we Country. #ibelieveNigeriawillbegreatsomeday.

Nice way of enjoying a long leave.

His next job won't afford him spare
time like this.

The next football caption I can't wait to read is

*Manchester United Axe Luis Van Gaal *
He needs a vacation too.

The special/greatest one meets the great one, who'll end up as an all time great. Proud of my fellow pounded yam eater and the face of the urban youths. Let's go CHAMP!

You can't go wrong with pounded yam - pounded yam power. grin

Anthony Joshua ready for bouts of home help before his US venture

This surely was an occasion for the winner to savour after predictions by so many experts that this was a premature test of his undoubted skills.

However, while others danced, sang and staggered into the night, Joshua moved from the scene of his triumph to the quiet of his dressing room as if he had just gone to the shops to collect a pre‑ordered delivery of his favourite Nigerian pounded yam.

Instead of scouting players that'll get united out of their misery he's busy watching some guys punch themselves...who knows if he might be learning boxing so as to get back at those foolish FAs and media who didnt let him do his job.
Watch what you say this time guys!!

This guy is so proud of Nigeria/Africa. He tattooed the map of Africa in his upper hand-shoulder showing Nigeria very well in it. Kudos to him. Lest I forget, that his six pack is the original version.

Guess he just need a back up guy at his next club to prevent another dressing room mutiny. Once the hunky figure of Anthony Joshua shows up in the dressing room during the first half pep talk, everybody will listen to instructions,they wan die?
