A Team GB super-heavyweight boxer who won a silver medal at the Rio Olympic Games in August is also a trained artist. London-based Joe Joyce graduated from Middlesex University in 2009 with a BA degree in fine art. The athlete-artist’s Expressionist portraits include one of the late boxing legend Muhammad Ali. His tutor at Middlesex University, Stephen Mumberson, says: “He is a modest young man outside the ring and a full professional in the ring. He approaches his painting with the same level of commitment.”
