American Boxer Michael Hunter has said he wish he could be the trainer of former heavy weight champion Anthony Joshua.
The British boxer lost his title to Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk at the London stadium.
Meanwhile, Joshua toured several gyms in America has he seek to add more and American-based trainer to his team.
Hunter suffered a points loss to Usyk in 2017, which remains the only blemish on his record, and he expected the pound-for-pound star to take Joshua’s WBA, IBF and WBO titles.
“It’s funny, because when he was doing his rounds, I was like, ‘I wish he could just take a trip over right where I’m at right now.’ I wish I could be his trainer,” said Hunter.
“I just think that I would be able to teach him a lot of different things, or show him a lot of different things, because he’s a fighter obviously but I feel like he doesn’t really know the laws of fighting.
“He knows the rules, but I feel like he doesn’t know how to apply the laws of fighting.
“A lot of these guys, we can use Andre Ward for example. He’s not the most talented person, but he’s very strategic in what he does.
“We all know it’s a learning curve for Anthony Joshua. He’s continued to grow since the Olympics. He’s only getting better.
“I think he’ll do well. It’s a good opportunity to get his revenge.”
