He even covers other people’s medical expenses and sends local children to school.

“AJ doesn’t spend his money on himself, but he does on his team, his family, his former trainers, his friends, and his community,” a source told The Sun Online.

“He could have purchased a home for himself years ago, but he has prioritized taking care of everyone else before focusing on that.

“He is expressing his gratitude, not being ostentatious, with the gifts.”Sean Murphy of the Finchley Amateur Boxing Club, the Watford star’s first boxing teacher and close friend, concurs with his assertion that his perspective would not alter even if he were paid £300 million per bout.

Residences for his mother and son

Joshua frequently shares heartfelt homages to his mother, social worker Yeta Odusanya, on social media, demonstrating their close relationship.

Even as he rose to fame, he lived with her in a two-bedroom former council home in Golders Green, North London, despite having previously rented an opulent £20,000-per-week mansion.

Following his Olympic exploits in 2013, the boxer paid £175,000 to purchase the property for his mother.

“We have reconciled. “It’s fantastic,” the 6′ 6″ champion remarked about living with his mother at the time.

He currently resides in a huge North London home with his mother and kid.

Joshua recently talked about being under lockdown with his family.

“I don’t have a gym or a pool at home,” he admitted to DAZN.

It’s good that my mother, my niece, my son, and my cousin are all quarantining together at my family home.

“As everyone knows, there is a pandemic going on all across the world, but thankfully, none of my family members have suffered any terrible losses or severe consequences from the virus.

“We are attempting to maximize our time together.”

He attributes his achievement to Yeta, who helped him get back on track after a time of disobedience during his youth.

He is still close to his father, Robert, even though his parents divorced when he was twelve.Sean, who Joshua still visits every week, explains: “He’s got a little boy [JJ, three] and his mum looks after the little one when he’s away, so they spend a lot of time together when he’s home.

“They’re really near.

“Josh is a down-to-earth, nice person and that’s down to his mum and dad who have taught him right from wrong and made him very respectful.”

AJ also bought a £500,000 penthouse in Finchley, North London, for his ex-girlfriend and JJ’s mum, Nicole Osbourne, despite them splitting.Luxury holidays and shopping sprees for his teamAJ has a huge entourage to help him stick to his packed schedule.

And he rewards their efforts with luxury holidays, nights out, shopping sprees and flights by private jets.

“He’s got a good crew around him and most of them are his personal friends from way back – people he can trust,” says Sean.

They have all taken vacations with him. They went to Vegas for a week and went shopping, and I hear they were all looked after very well.”

Those in his inner circle include school friends and family members, such as his cousin Ben.
