Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou: Date CONFIRMED, TV channel, live stream and FULL card for huge Saudi crossover bout

EDDIE HEARN has confirmed that Anthony Joshua will take on MMA legend Francis Ngannou in his next fight.

The bout is expected to be a ten-round boxing match between the two-time former heavyweight champion and the ex-UFC title holder and is another coup for Saudi dealmaker Turki Al-Sheikh.

AJ recently overcame tricky southpaw Otto Wallin on the blockbuster bill in Saudi Arabia on December 23rd.

Before last month’s epic card, Joshua was expected to fight long-term rival Deontay Wilder after his meeting with the Swede.

But any hopes of a deal went up in smoke after the Bronze Bomber was on the end of a shock defeat to Joseph Parker in Saudi Arabia.

Ngannou raised many eyebrows in the world of boxing following his stunning debut against Tyson Fury in October 2023.

Many thought the UFC legend got the better of the Gypsy King on the night, but the heavyweight champion was victorious by way of split decision.
