Anthony Joshua receives special gift from Ibrahim Mahama

Before the seaside adventure, Ibrahim Mahama surprised Joshua with a brand-new Honda motorbike.

Valued between $10,000 and $18,000, the gift wasn’t just an item—it was a heartfelt show of gratitude for Joshua’s presence and support for Sharaf’s boxing movement.

The gesture was even more fitting given Joshua’s love for bikes, something he displayed upon arrival in Ghana.

As it turns out, Ibrahim Mahama shares the same passion, making the exchange more personal and meaningful.
