Anthony Joshua defeated Cameroonian boxer, Francis Ngannou, in a second round knockout in the much-publiisized boxing match in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

This was another Anthony Joshua’s knockout after his consecutive victories in 2023 with wins over Jermaine Franklin in April and Robert Helenius with a seventh-round knockout in August, Joshua, in December, won a fifth-round technical knockout against Otto Wallin.

Joshua has now secured knockout wins over two fighters who took Tyson Fury the distance in Wallin and Ngannou.

Ngannou had knocked down Fury last year. This was why fans believed he could pull a shocker against Joshua too.

But Joshua defeated Ngannou in two rounds and a knockout win inside just five minutes of their fight.

Indeed, the Cameroonian boxer was attended to by a doctor after he was knocked out and received oxygen at the corner of the ring before he stood back up.

In the post-match conference, Joshua expressed readiness to face the winner of Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk for a chance back at the world heavyweight titles.
