Thrilling Faceoff: Anthony Joshua Takes on Francis Ngannou on March 8, Promising Explosive Action - 'I Will Do Something Nobody Has Done.'

Thrilling Faceoff: Anthony Joshua Takes on Francis Ngannou on March 8, Promising Explosive Action - 'I Will Do Something Nobody Has Done.'

The fight between Tyson Fury and former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou would be a straightforward and effortless victory for Fury. Many believed that, given Fury's impressive track record against Deontay Wilder, Ngannou, who hadn't previously competed in professional boxing, would be easily defeated. The expectation was based on the common belief that most renowned mixed martial artists struggle when facing accomplished boxers in the ring.

 

In a surprising turn of events, Francis Ngannou displayed a unique approach to boxing, distinguishing himself from the stereotype of mixed martial artists crossing over. Unlike many of Tyson Fury's recent opponents, Ngannou demonstrated not only a boxer's technique but also showcased superior strength. This challenged the notion of easily overpowering an opponent in the ring. Most notably, Ngannou proved that mixed martial artists could compete at a high level in boxing, as evidenced by scoring a knockdown in round three, even though Fury ultimately secured a split decision victory that night.

 

Francis Ngannou is entering his second professional boxing match, facing former WBA, WBO, and IBF heavyweight titlist Anthony Joshua. Unlike seeking quick and easy crossover paydays, Ngannou is stepping into this challenge with a genuine intent to compete in the realm of professional boxing. While Anthony Joshua is expected to be the favorite in their March pay-per-view bout, Ngannou, who has already proven his ability to contend with top boxers, relies on his formidable power, discipline, and natural talent, making him a formidable and potentially dangerous opponent despite the absence of the element of surprise.

 

“He brings two arms, a body, but his mind is different to everyone else,” Joshua said of Ngannou at a press conference on Monday. “In terms of his frame and make-up, I’ve seen people like him many times before.” Joshua added: “No problem. Every fight leads to somewhere, so this fight is my everything and we will see where it leads me. My main focus is Ngannou and getting through an intense training camp. I have got to take his mind and his spirit, it will be explosive. We can both trade, and it will be a good fight.”

 

Ngannou, there's a growing acknowledgment that Ngannou has the potential to pull off an upset. While Joshua is expected to have the upper hand, the unpredictability of sports leaves room for the possibility that Ngannou could emerge victorious against the odds.

 

“I will do something nobody has done before, and I have the tools to do that. It will not be an easy fight, but a possible one [to win].”

 

“I’m going to come as an underdog to win the fight. I will get this done.”

 

The Cameroonian, 37, said: “I’m just a beginner. I will come out better and that’s how I see things. I prepared for a hard fight. The Fury fight is in the past, and I will take this more serious than before because there’s more on the line, the undisputed”

 

Francis Ngannou, once considered an underdog, expressed confidence during a Monday press conference, emphasizing that such words might have seemed implausible before his fight with Tyson Fury but now carry a different weight. While the outcome is uncertain and his assertion may or may not prove accurate, the confidence in his statement has gained credibility in the aftermath of his bout with Fury.
