Fans convinced Anthony Joshua ‘could pass for professional footballer’ after stunning free kick with David Beckham

ANTHONY JOSHUA has wowed fans by showing off his football s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s.

The British boxing star caught up with old pal David Beckham during a previous trip to Inter Miami.

David Beckham also rolled back the years

While in South Florida, AJ hit the training pitch with former Manchester United star Becks.

In a throwback video posted to social media, Joshua and Beckham both took free-kicks.

Becks, 48, unsurprisingly curled his beyond the goalkeeper in trademark fashion.

Joshua then raised a few eyebrows by whipping an impressive shot into the bottom corner himself.

Captioning the video, AJ wrote: “Kicking ball with my child hood hero.”

Fans were left amazed by Joshua’s football s𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁s.

One wrote of the 33-year-old: “You could pass for a professional football player.”

While a second gushed: “What a finish.”

A third even added: “Better then Ronaldo & Messi.”

Joshua has been biding his time since defeating Robert Helenius last time out in August.

The former heavyweight champion is believed to be targeting a blockbuster clash with Deontay Wilder.

But he has been bizarrely called out by 56-year-old Riddick Bowe.

Speaking on The Porter Way Podcast earlier this year, Bowe claimed: “In my prime, Anthony Joshua, he wouldn’t fight. I’d break him off something proper. Five (rounds).

“And I’ll tell you what, if you give me enough money I’ll come out of retirement and show you better than I can tell you. You know my motto is ‘show me the money’.”
