I have been lucky enough to interview Joseph maybe 20 times since he first became a professional boxer ten years ago. But this is the first time I have sat down with him for an in-depth conversation.
If you are a boxing fan, you’ll love this. But I honestly think this is an enjoyable conversation for all. We cover so much ground here outside of the ring including running, his relationship with Tyson Fury and why he felt depressed after becoming the world champion.
Joe is a great guy. Humble, kind, generous and polite...but he could also kill you with one punch if he wanted to!
