Yeah, I would, but what I've said to Robert and the team as well is that I want to be a free spirit. You know, I locked myself down for 11 years with one coach, and now I just feel like I just want to learn as much as possible."

Roy Jones Jr recently disclosed that he has had conversations with Joshua about potentially training him while Garcia came out last week to affirm that he hasn't been in contact with Joshua 'for quite some time'.

With all the speculation surrounding Joshua's next move, McGuigan was asked whether he would train Joshua if approached. Speaking to Seconds Out, he said: "It's Anthony Joshua, of course, I would fancy it.

"Athletic guy, he's got things to learn, and he needs to get the belief back in himself. Genuine belief back in himself, a couple of good victories and then roll the dice again."

He added: "I believe I could get a lot of good work in with AJ. I think as long as he gets back to believing what the right approach is for him then he'll get back to doing great things again."

now I've given AJ a bit more respect than most over time. but this is complete bullshit . I saw an interview with RJJ the other day when his name was being mentioned and they said about AJ saying this about moving around and they asked RJJ if he thought it was a good idea.
He said - "Absolutely not! you can't go to one trainer and he teaches you a ceetain way, then you go to another and he would teach you totally differently so you would get mixed up. I also think he implied that he wouldn't be prepared to train AJ if it was gonna be on that basis.
What Joshua has to understand is that he's looking for something that doesn't exist! he wants a trainer to make him a great boxer.
there is no golden secret to producing great boxers .
Ultimately all the answers are within him. only HE can make himself a great boxer.
