A stranger helped Francis before his fight with Fury
Ukrainian heavyweight Alexander Zakhozhy is in the training camp of the former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.
Alexander helps the Cameroonian-French fighter prepare for a boxing match against the former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. Let us remember that the Ukrainian worked with Ngannou before Francis’ debut fight with Tyson Fury.
30-year-old Zakhozhy is an undefeated Ukrainian boxer. He fought his last fight in March 2023, knocking out German Muhammad Ali Durmaz.
The fight between Ngannou and Joshua will take place on March 8 in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh. There is a high probability that the fight between Filip Hrgovic and Joseph Parker will take place on the undercard of this fight.
Ngannou lost a decision to WBC champion Tyson Fury in his only boxing fight. The Cameroonian made a good impression against the current champion title holder, knocking down the “Gypsy King” and inflicting several cuts on the Briton.
At the end of December, Joshua confidently defeated Otto Wallin, who refused to continue the fight after the 5th round, as part of the “Day of Reckoning”. Anthony stated that he was ready to fight the next fight with anyone.
