“If anybody has AJ (Anthony Joshua) number I want to quickly talk to him as a brother to a friend. I’m sure you saw the fight last night.
“You saw what happened to our Edo brother Deontay ‘Odion’ Wilder. You saw what happened to him. You know you are our Ogun State brother too, from Ijebu.
“I want to beg you; don’t listen to Fury o… Don’t fight him o. As soon as you defeat Usyk to reclaim your belts, come to Nigeria we will host you.”
