Former WBA light heavyweight title challenger Umar Salamov in an exclusive interview with marvelgamingbet.com spoke about the upcoming boxing fight between Francis Ngannou and Anthony Joshua, which will take place on March 8 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
I really want Joshua to knock out Ngannou so that no one will have any hopes that an MMA fighter can beat a boxer. Tyson Fury screwed up so badly that there was talk that Ngannou was almost robbed. It was annoying.

Joshua's last fight was against Otto Wallin in December 2023 in Saudi Arabia. In this fight Anthony won by technical knockout in the fifth round. He has 27 wins (24 by knockout) and three losses on his record.
Ngannou made his professional ring debut in October 2023. He came out for a bout against WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. This fight lasted the entire distance and ended with Francis' defeat by a split decision of the judges.
