World boxing heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua, has shut down the Internet with this new video showing the glo ambassador making eba.
In the video, being shared widely on social media, the proudly Naija boxer is seen making Eba, while King Sunny Ade plays in the background. Joshua, who is from Sagamu in Ogun state Nigeria, is also British, but loves to identify with Nigeria at any opportunity he gets.

The 29-year revealed last year that eating Eba and Egusi were the secret to his success in the ring.
Meanwhile, Deontay Wilder had finally confirmed when Anthony Joshua fight will happen.
The 31-year-old boxer recently rejected a multi-fight package worth $100million with DAZN which included two bouts with Anthony Joshua.
During half-time of Final Four, a college basketball tournament, Wilder was speaking on CBS to promote his fight with Dominic Breazeale on May 18. He was asked the question that everybody wants to know, when will he fight Joshua?
“That is the big question,” Deontay Wilder responded. Joshua and his team have already spoken that they want it in 2020, I’m a believer of ‘would you speak it, you believe to receive it’ and what it’s going towards.
“The main thing about this all is that it’s a three headed king in this division and we’re all in talks. People might not get the right fight at the moment in time they want it but it’s coming.”
Wilder currently holds the WBC belt, which is the only prize to elude Anthony Joshua in heavyweight boxing.
Speaking last month he claimed that a fight with Joshua would only be made on one condition. “Loyalty is everything, it’s the foundation of success,” Wilder told The Schmo. How can you do negotiations, a deal, if we don’t know what the other party is doing?
“Whatever the fight was worth, let’s say $3, and you give me $1 and he gets the rest of the pot – I’m lowering my standards. That’s not right to me. Like I said, and I’ll say it again, the only way this fight is going to happen is if it’s 50/50. I don’t care what it is.
“At this point in time it ain’t even about the belts. I’m the hottest, most talked about fighter in the world right now and I got one belt.
“I got the one belt that means more than all the other belts. That’s that green WBC belt. The most precious and beautiful belt in boxing. Every great fighter has had this belt. If they want to correct, it’s going to be right down the line.”
Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua, OBE (born 15 October 1989) is a British professional boxer. He is currently a unified world heavyweight champion, holding three of the four major championships in boxing: the IBF title since 2016, the WBA (Super) title since 2017, and the WBO title since 2018. He has also held the IBO title since 2017, and at regional level he held the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles from 2014 to 2016.
In 2017, his victorious fight against Wladimir Klitschko was named Fight of the Year by The Ring and the Boxing Writers Association of America. Joshua is the second British boxer, after James DeGale, to win both a gold medal at the Olympics and a world title by a major professional sanctioning body, as well as being the first British heavyweight to do so.
