British boxing superstar Anthony Joshua was involved in a minor road incident in Nigeria on Monday, December 29, 2025, but emerged completely unharmed, according to sources close to the former two-time unified world heavyweight champion.
While details surrounding the exact circumstances remain limited, close associates and officials have confirmed that there were no injuries sustained and no immediate cause for concern.
“He’s absolutely fine – just a small bump in the road, nothing to worry about,” said a source familiar with the situation, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to the private nature of the matter.
AJ is currently in Nigeria, his ancestral homeland, where he frequently travels for personal engagements, public appearances, and community initiatives. His visits often draw significant public attention, reflecting his deep-rooted connection to the country and his strong following across Africa and beyond.
Despite the incident, Joshua remains in good spirits and his plans are reportedly unaffected. He continues to maintain a rigorous training schedule as he prepares for future bouts, even while traveling. No official statement has been issued by his management team detailing vehicle damage or involvement of other parties, but emphasis has remained firmly on his health and safety.
