In a highly-anticipated showdown in Saudi Arabia, two-time world Heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua secured a remarkable KO victory over Francis Ngannou. The clash, eagerly awaited after months of anticipation, finally unfolded at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh. For Ngannou, a former UFC champion, this marked only his second foray into boxing following a contentious loss to Tyson Fury in October. Joshua, weighing 20lbs lighter than his Cameroonian opponent, had vowed to bring relentless aggression to the Middle East bout. True to his word, the British star initiated the action by flooring the former UFC champion with a surprising straight right in the opening round.
