Russian boxer Dmitry Kudryashov believes that the former world champion according to WBA, WBO and IBF Antoine Joshua knocks out former UFC champ Francis Ngannou .
Ngannou, 37, will compete in a boxing match on March 8 in Saudi Arabia. This will be Ngannou’s second fight in professional boxing following his debut on October 28 last year in a fight with Tyson Fury. From 2015 to 2022, Francis competed in the UFC, winning the heavyweight championship belt. Anthony Josh’s professional boxing record is 27 wins and 3 losses.
– Ngannou will now “fall asleep” with Joshua. I can’t be sure, but it seems to me that Joshua will not be as easy as Tyson Fury (the fight between Ngannou and Fury ended with a decision of the judges, but during the fight Tyson received a knockdown. – “”).
— So Ngannou’s first boxing performance didn’t impress you?
– I was not impressed. I understand that Joshua will come out with a different mindset and that Ngannou will struggle.
It seems to me that, scared of the Ngannou-Fury fight, Joshua is just going to go out and beat Ngannou. Ngannou will have nowhere to go, he will not be able to get up or get down, and he will have to take everything on himself.
– If Ngannou wins, will you admit that he is good at boxing?
– It’s already good. He is a great champion, a UFC champion, this guy is very good, and it is definitely not for me to say something here, ”reports a correspondent, reporting Kudryashov’s words.
