16 September 2015 Heavyweight boxer, Anthony Joshua joins Team Green

Watford-born and bred heavyweight boxer and off-road fanatic, Anthony Joshua has joined Kawasaki’s Team Green today when he took delivery of a brand new Kawasaki KX250F
Just days after continuing his winning streak – and maintaining his unbeaten record of 14 wins – by beating Gary Cornish in a first round knock-out at the O2 Arena, Anthony treated himself to a little downtime and nurtured one of his other passions, off-road riding.
 
Anthony said: “I’m so excited to get my hands on this bike. I’ve been planning to get it for months but I wanted to wait until after the fight so I didn’t lose focus. A lot of people are surprised when they find out that I enjoy riding bikes but I love them - I’ve been riding them since I was in my early teens and love spending time with my mates riding.
 
“The Kawasaki KX250F was an obvious choice for me, it’s a proven winner – so we’ve got something in common! I can’t wait to get out on it now – my friend has already decided that he wants one too now…”
 
The KX250F features a liquid-cooled, four-stroke single cylinder 249cc engine and is priced at £6349. It weighs 106.2kg – that’s 2kg less than Anthony…
 
Gill Jockel, Marketing Section Head for Kawasaki UK, said: “We’re really pleased that Anthony Joshua rides a Kawasaki. Our whole philosophy for Team Green is to nurture talent and ensure it rises through the ranks – and that’s exactly what AJ is doing in the boxing world. We wish him lots of fun on his new green-machine and look forward to keeping up to date with his adventures on social media.”
