Big time boxing returns to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on March 8th with a massive crossover boxing event Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou live on DAZN and PPV.com.
After an impressive professional boxing debut against undefeated heavyweight king Tyson Fury, former UFC champion Francis Ngannou will get a second chance to face the very best in the division when he takes on former unified world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
Ngannou grew up a boxing fan and wanted to become the heavyweight world champion, but due to his financial situation his coach suggested he go into MMA since it would be a quicker way to money than boxing. The Cameroon native would rise to the top of the MMA world and win over fans with his devastating punching power. He claimed the UFC title and now he wants to live out his dream of capturing boxing gold.
For Anthony Joshua he is in a tough situation because if he loses to Ngannou he would have lost to an MMA fighter with little boxing experience. If he wins decisively or by knockout he will be able to claim that he did better than his rival Tyson Fury who many ringside observers felt got a gift decision over Ngannou.
