Demetrious Johnson has asserted a strong opinion regarding Anthony Joshua’s MMA prospects against Francis Ngannou.
Ngannou, with a record of 0-2, suffered a knockout in the second round of his recent boxing match against Joshua (28-3) at Knockout Chaos in Kingdom Arena, Saudi Arabia.
In the opening round, both fighters spent the first two minutes studying each other. Joshua’s straight right hand sent Ngannou to the canvas with just a minute remaining. Although Ngannou got up, it didn’t last.
Joshua, known as “AJ,” remained patient, seeking the potential knockout punch. Another right hand dropped the former UFC champion, followed by an even more devastating right hand that kept Ngannou on the canvas.
