The former world super heavyweight champion believes the Briton should replace his coach.
Anthony Joshua must change his coach after losing his title fight to Daniel Dubois. This is what former American boxer Hasim Rahman said.
In his opinion, the legendary Lennox Lewis, who managed to return the Briton to the top of the heavyweight division, would be perfect for this role.
In addition, Rahman called passivity in the ring the main reason for Joshua’s defeat.
“I think Joshua fought a bit passively. That’s why he got hit.”
I think Anthony needs a different coach. I know there is one trainer he doesn’t always get along with, but I believe Lennox Lewis can take him to the super heavyweight title. Whatever minor differences they had, they could put them aside and create a British dream team that would come back and win the title for a third time. I think Lennox is the man Anthony needs. I know Lewis would agree.
The most important thing is experience. Lennox is in Anthony’s situation now and he knows how to come back. Whenever Lewis found himself in that situation, he won. Just Boxing IQ and the way he maneuvers in the ring. I think Lennox would be the perfect choice for Anthony,” Rahman was quoted as saying by Boxingnews 24.
We remind you that Daniel Dubois easily defeated Anthony Joshua, knocking out his opponent in the fifth round, having previously knocked him down three times.
Earlier, Terence Crawford explained why Joshua lost to Dubois without a chance.
