How Anthony Joshua destroyed Francis Ngannou in two rounds

British-Nigerian two time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua destroyed Francis Ngannou whose nascent career in boxing took on two knockdowns and a knock out in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Joshua floored the Cameroonian-French mixed martial artist and UFC champion in the first round and early in the second before delivering a destructive second-round knockout.

Ngannou had to be treated by the medical personnel as he appeared motionless when he hit the canvas, another reminder of Joshua’s power.

The manner of the loss for Ngannou was one that reminded fans of combat sport of the threat and danger especially for crossover or would be cross over fighters.

Joshua’s incredible has amazed sports lovers because just few months ago, in October 2023, Tyson Fury was cut and floored by Ngannou in a stunning professional debut performance from the former reigning UFC heavyweight champion, eventually winning a contentious decision on the scorecards.

Speaking after his win, Joshua said;

“When I saw the fight with Tyson Fury I thought ‘I want some of that’. [Ngannou] is a great champion and this doesn’t take anything away from his capabilities”.
