World's Heavyweight Champion, Anthony Joshua’s £150,000
personalised Range Rover has been stolen in central London.
The boxer’s luxury car was taken outside a family member’s
home in the capital just days before his world title fight against Alexander
Povetkin.
A source told MailOnline: 'In the early hours of yesterday
morning, Anthony Joshua's personalised Range Rover was stolen from outside a
relative's house while he was away training at the Sheffield Institute of Sport.
He has reported it stolen.'
He's the unlikeliest of targets for car thieves as the car
is completely personalised with its registration number while head rests,
steering wheel, a badge and even door interiors are marked with the Anthony
Joshua signature. It's also fitted with a tracker. And who'd want to be caught
stealing from the heavyweight champion of the world?
'So he'll be absolutely gutted as he loves that car, which
is shared with family members while he's away. The family member who had it
taken from their driveway is said to be devastated.
'And this is an unwelcome distraction while he's preparing
for his heavyweight clash against the Russian Alexander Povetkin at Wembley
Stadium on 22 September.'
Joshua's spokesman said: 'A shared car was stolen from a
relative's central London home in the early hours of Thursday morning.
'This is now a police matter and no further information will
be made available,' he added.
