Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou, trained in Mixed Martial Arts, will square off in a heavyweight boxing match on March 8 in Saudi Arabia.
Only in October of last year, in Riyadh, did the 37-year-old former UFC champion make his professional boxing debut by suffering a shock defeat to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury before dropping a close decision.
On February 17, Fury will take on Oleksandr Usyk, the holder of the WBA, WBO, and IBF belts, in an attempt to become the first heavyweight champion to go undefeated since 1999.
