Craig Richards says he has 'irritated' Joshua Buatsi, but Olympian has taken advice from Anthony Joshua ahead of fight
Joshua Buatsi and Craig Richards meet this Saturday in a domestic showdown with world title ramifications.
“If I didn’t do what I did in the amateurs, Matchroom wouldn’t have given me the backing. You have to earn it. He knows that, that’s the thing. So when he puts that narrative across, you’re lying to yourself, bro.” “A lot of these fights I’ve taken, I was the underdog with the bookies and I caused the upset with the [Jake] Balls and the Shakans [Pitters] etc, etc. I thrive on that.
“They were like ‘Nah, the security is there, they’re not letting anyone in.’ I said ‘Guys, forget the security I’m going in for a picture.’ Got there, the security are like ‘no, you can’t get in.’“So I’m like cool, I turn around and the guy with Mayweather is like ‘there’s Buatsi.’ So then I came over and he said cool [to let me near to him].
