Anthony Joshua is returning to the ring against Kristian Prenga, which will be his first fight since surviving the car crash that claimed the lives of close friends Sina Ghami and Latif "Latz" Ayodele
It’s heavy knowing the emotional weight he’s carrying into this fight. It reminds me of how athletes often find a completely different level of drive when they're fighting for someone else's legacy rather than just a belt. Do you think this shift in motivation changes his actual approach in the ring?

Tough way to get back into the game, but fighting for your friends is the ultimate motivator. That kind of drive usually leads to a knockout performance. Do you think AJ comes back sharper after a break like this, or is the emotional weight too much?
