A video showing where the truck was packed during the accident surfaced online, and an X user, @damrid_, shared how the accident may affect the boxer.

He said:

“Anthony Joshua recovering from the injuries is one battle, but living with the loss of his closest friends is another entirely. Losing close friends; people who weren’t just teammates, but brothers leaves a kind of pain that time doesn’t easily erase.
“They were part of his daily life, his journey, his victories, and his private moments. Healing the body may be possible, but learning to accept that they’re gone is a wound that cuts far deeper.
“Grief like this doesn’t come with a finish line. Some days will feel manageable, others unbearable, because their absence will always be felt; in training, in silence, in moments they were meant to share together. Strength doesn’t mean moving on quickly; sometimes it means simply carrying the loss with dignity and honoring their memory by continuing forward.
