What happened to Anthony Joshua? Boxing champion involves in Nigeria car crash, two dead

Anthony Joshua was involved in a vehicular accident in Nigeria on Monday, which led to two deaths, confirmed local authorities to ESPN. The boxer is said to have sustained only minor injuries.

Joshua, a two-time heavyweight champion, was riding in the rear of a vehicle on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway close to Sagamu, which is Joshua's ancestral hometown, when the incident occurred.

According to police reports, two individuals lost their lives due to the accident.

Speaking to ESPN, Ogun State Police Commissioner Lanre Ogunlowo said, “The accident happened as a result of a burst tire on AJ's vehicle, which caused the driver to lose control and the vehicle to swerve into the stationary truck parked along the road.”

“For now, I'm aware of two fatalities and Joshua himself has been taken to an undisclosed hospital for medical attention. The Command will issue a press release soon.”
