The Cameroonian fighter, Francis Ngannou, has already initiated major maneuvers for his upcoming bout against Anthony Joshua, the double champion in the heavyweight division. In an interview with Ariel Helwani, the Predator announces a more offensive fight than the one against Tyson Fury.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much more confident after his first English boxing match against the undefeated champion in his category, Tyson Fury, the African Athlete of the Year 2023 is gearing up for an even more intense second appearance. A few weeks after the Battle of The Baddest in Saudi Arabia, Francis Ngannou has already secured a lucrative new contract, and it will be against Anthony Joshua (30 fights, 27 victories including 24 KOs and 3 defeats). Officialized last weekend, the scheduled duel on March 8th, still in Saudi Arabia, promises to be electric.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the predictions of bookmakers <\/a>still labeling him as a slight outsider, the former UFC champion no longer hides. After his impressive performance on October 28th, Ngannou no longer sees himself losing to Anthony Joshua. In Ariel Helwani’s MMA Hour<\/a><\/em>, which exclusively announced the March fight<\/a>, the PFL star did not mince his words. Before warning his opponent about the chin he wants to test, Francis Ngannou revealed how he secured this big fight that will bring him significantly more money.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I watched Wilder’s fight, then Joshua’s, and I thought there was an opportunity to seize. So, I started with a tweet, and then I received a call. [Laughs]<\/em>,” he first mentioned before discussing AJ’s performance against the Swede Otto Wallin on December 23rd. “He looked amazing. He was incredible. Respect to him, congratulations to him. He did his job correctly, his speed, everything. He was sharp, very sharp. But on the other hand, I think there was no response in front of him,<\/em>” says Francis Ngannou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I’ll throw some bombs at him<\/em>“<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As for himself, the native of Bati\u00e9 simply aims to claim victory on March 8th. Ngannou sees himself clearly better than the recent opponent of the former WBA, WBO, and IBF champion. “I think I’ll have a better response in front of him that will put him in a less comfortable position. Things will change. It will be different. I won’t just stand there watching him. It will be different. I’ll throw some bombs at him to see how he handles it. I think he’ll pay attention to what he’s doing.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eddie Hearn: \u201cAnthony Joshua just boxed Otto Wallin who gave Tyson Fury a really tough time – the fight should've been stopped, Wallin should've won. AJ went out and it was a mismatch, he demolished him. I believe he's gonna do the same vs Francis Ngannou.\u201d [@MMAFighting<\/a>]<\/p>— Michael Benson (@MichaelBensonn) January 8, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote>
