Two-time Olympic boxing champion in featherweight and lightweight Alexey Tishchenko assessed the chances of the opponents in the upcoming fight between British boxer Anthony Joshua and Cameroonian mixed martial arts fighter Francis Ngannou.
This will be Ngannou’s second fight in professional boxing after his debut on October 28 last year in a fight with Tyson Fury. From 2015 to 2022, Ngannou competed in the UFC and won the heavyweight championship belt. Joshua’s professional boxing record is 27 wins, 3 losses.
– The fight will be interesting. Moreover, Ngannou showed himself well in the first boxing match with Fury. It will be interesting to see how he will fare against Joshua.
I think Joshua is the favorite in the fight. He has a lot more boxing experience. But Ngannou, judging by the fight with Fury, is not an easy opponent at all. He must approach this meeting responsibly and prepare well,” Vprognoze.ru quotes Tishchenko as saying.
Live broadcasts of mixed martial arts tournaments can be seen on the Match TV and Match! Fighter”, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
