Anthony Joshua has revealed in a Louis Theroux Interview that he would smoke “maybe six spliffs a day” before he shook his cannabis habit and became a professional boxer.
Wonder if they discussed him selling the stuff as well?

6 spliffs a day deadbeat to Olympic gold and unified HW World champion! What an inspirational turnaround.

I don't remember him beating the world champion at any point.

It reminds me of that Bob Marley song - easy skanking.

Charles Martin, Joseph Parker and Andy Ruiz were all holding belts when Joshua beat them.

6 is nothing. He must have been rolling little joints.
Plenty of people I knew back in my stoner days would smoke all day every day. He was a wasteman, that’s what they do.

It wasn't like he was lying around all day. He had to find the time to sell the stuff too.

I'm sure young Anthony sold drugs to all sorts of people. It bought about him meeting Eddie Hearn. So there was a positive in it.

The typo in the thread title created quite the different meaning

If this entire thread was supposed to be a dig at Joshua selling weed then it's pretty embarrassing. Selling or smoking weed as a teenager is very low on the criminal or immoral scale for most people. It wouldn't even put him in the worst 90% of boxers when you have legitimate drug cheats, domestic abusers, sex offenders, bullies, bigots, narcissists, murderers, and more all riddled throughout the sports history and even in the recent history. He managed to get up off the couch as a stoner to becoming a champ which should be commended, not really sure it's bad enough to try and vilify him about though.

Joshua farting on public transport is enough to send some posters into a tizzy, the author of this thread being one of the main tizzy specialists.
Still, I guess it does deflect a bit from the current embarrassment that is Tyson Fury.

that's exactly what it is, the op is basically a joshua tabloid writer who digs at aj for selling some weed as a teenager, while fanboying for a cocaine fiend and proven drug cheat

Perhaps the irony of having a username of Rasta whilst bitching about weed use/selling is lost on the Fury fan bois.

It wasn’t just selling little ten pound bags to his mates though was it, he was caught with a sizeable amount of it.
The laws are there for a reason, if every slimeball waster decided to make a living selling drugs and not paying tax on earnings then the whole economy suffers and normal law abiding citizens are disincentivised to work or contribute positively to society.
