On March 8, Francis Ngannou and Anthony Joshua will play professional boxing in Saudi Arabia. Ngannou is expected very high when he used to play badly against Tyson Fury. He even punched Fury in the first match, and only loses close to the score.
Commenting on the winner in the pair between nunnou and Joshua, Jon Jones said: “I support Francis to win because he has moved far away in his career, because he was a comrade with me on MMA.” However, Jones did not think nunnou could win.
Similar to Fury, Joshua is a seasoned boxer on a professional boxing floor. But while Fury often won thanks to its outstanding power, Joshua played more in speed and technique. He won the Olympic Games before moving to the professional.
“Joshua has practiced the boxing from a young age. He is the type of boxer who walked on the floor to compete with the maximum respect for the opponent. In his personal point of view, if I have to choose who to win among them, I will choose Joshua. Sorry Francis, I support him but don't think he can win,” Jones said.
On the side of Jon Jones, the reigning UFC champion of Heavyweight has not yet determined the time to return to the competition. He withdrew from the competition with Stipe Miocic late last year due to a broken ligament. Miocic has now been deleted from the UFC rankings.
