Anthony Joshua , Latif Ayodele and Sina Ghami
The tragic car crash involving British heavyweight boxing star Anthony Joshua in Nigeria has claimed the lives of two of his closest associates and long-time collaborators, Latif Ayodele and Sina Ghami.

The deceased have been identified as Joshua’s personal trainer, Latif Ayodele, popularly known as Latz and his strength and conditioning coach, Sina Ghami. Both men were not only integral members of Joshua’s professional team but also close friends who played key roles in his boxing journey.

Sina Ghami had most recently worked with Joshua in preparing him physically for his high-profile bout against YouTube-turned-boxer Jake Paul, which took place just two weeks ago. Known for his expertise in strength and conditioning, Ghami was widely respected for his contribution to elite athlete performance and training optimization.

Latif Ayodele, on the other hand, served as Joshua’s personal trainer and was a constant presence throughout his career, providing technical guidance, discipline and personal support beyond the ring.

News of their passing has sent shockwaves through the boxing community and beyond, with fans, athletes and industry figures expressing deep sorrow over the loss. The bond between Anthony Joshua and both men extended far beyond professional ties, making the tragedy particularly devastating.

At this time, further details surrounding the circumstances of the accident remain limited.

Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences go out to the families, friends, and loved ones of Latif Ayodele and Sina Ghami. May their souls rest in peace.
