"It's a once in a life time opportunity to meet him (Anthony Joshua) and It was a fantastic experience," says Exeter fan.

The heavyweight champion of the world, who holds three of the four major championship belts in the sport, made the trek to Devon on Wednesday (13th June) to host an evening at Sandy Park. 

The British phenomenon is set to fight Americans Deontay Wilder in the UK later this year. Wilder, 32, holds the WBC title and wants a unification bout with Joshua, the WBA, IBF and WBO champion. He tweeted: "The $50m offer for him to fight me next in the US is still available. Today I even agreed to their offer to fight Joshua next in the UK."

In the meantime, Joshua found time in his busy schedule to take centre stage at Sandy Park talking about his career, fights and more. Take a look at the short video below:
