GB boxer Anthony Joshua 'grateful' for 2012 chance

Boxer Anthony Joshua says he is grateful for the chance to represent Britain at the London Olympics after qualifying courtesy of his second-place finish at the World Amateur Championships in October.

The 22-year-old super-heavyweight, who only took up the sport aged 18, beat Olympic and world champion Roberto Cammerelle on the way to his silver medal in only his second senior multi-nations tournament.
