It turns out Jose Mourinho is an Anthony Joshua fan.
The former Chelsea manager is at the 02 arena in London, taking in the world heavyweight title bout between Anthony Joshua and Charles Martin.
Mourinho claimed that he’s a fan of British fighter Joshua, and tipped him to have a productive career.
Jose seemed in good spirits, but we’ve a feeling his final remarks to Sky Sports, during this brief interview, were somewhat tongue-in-cheek.
“During the build-up to the fight, something I enjoy that doesn’t always happen (was that) they showed respect for each other,” Mourinho said.
Yep, that’s right, Jose claims he is happy to see respect amongst boxers, but probably still considers Arsene Wenger a “specialist in failure.”
