Anthony Joshua knocked out Francis Ngannou in the second round of a stirring victory during Friday’s heavyweight bout in Saudi Arabia.
Against former two-time world champion Anthony Joshua, Ngannou was hoping for something similar to his fight with Tyson Fury
Joshua, the British star, knocked down Ngannou in the first round, knocked him down again in the second round & then delivered the knockout punch at 2:38 of the second round.
Joshua has now positioned himself for a shot at the undisputed heavyweight title ; the winner of Tyson Fury & Oleksandr Usyk.
Joshua dropped ex-UFC champion Nganno in round one with a clean right hand, before doing the same in round two. After Ngannou beat the referee’s count following the 2nd knockdown, Joshua knocked the Cameroonian out cold with his very next punch – another right cross.
