The fight will take place in Riyadh on March 8
Former World Heavyweight Champion Anthony Joshua and former UFC champion Francis Ngannou held an open training session before their fight.
The fighters took turns entering the ring and did some training with their sparring partners. Boxers who will fight on the undercard of the event also took part in the training.
The Joshua-Ngannou fight will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on March 8. The undercard of the event, among others, includes Roman Fury, the younger brother of Tyson Fury, who is going to attend this event. In addition, before the Joshua-Ngannou fight there will be a fight between Zhang Zhilei and Joseph Parker. Also as part of the show, Ukrainian Andrei Novitsky will fight against American Juan Torres.
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.
Ngannou lost a decision to 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.
