She proceeded to state she was, “too focused on work”, to be tied down, and AJ replied: “Um, yeah,” when the blonde asked if he felt the same. And making light of the situation, she added: “We’ve got so much in common.”

Elaborating on why he’s single at the moment, AJ explained: “With boxing, I feel I never wanted to commit because I didn’t want to go training and I’m busy arguing with my missus or something and my head’s not in the game.

“I just decided to keep my head where it needs to be.” Woods is currently hot property in the sports world, with Chelsea star Ruben Loftus-Cheek also professing his interest in the presenter recently.

The midfielder admitted he had a crush on Woods on talkSPORT last week, and she joked afterward she’ll get his number later. Joshua referenced their exchange when shooting his shot at Woods and conceded defeat to the Blues ace, saying: “I know [Ruben] Loftus-Cheek’s beat me to it.”
