Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou: Heavyweight Boxing – as it happened

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Well, that was quite the spectacle and worth the wait.

Both boxers, and fans around the world, were kept waiting by the undercard bouts.

How it was worth every second of the time spent in anticipation.

That final right-hand punch from Anthony Joshua will be talked about and replayed for years.

It was as destructive and powerful a punch as you could imagine.

The damage had been done by the previous two blows and Francis Ngannou had no energy left to respond to the build-up to the knockout blow as Joshua lined up his man.

We hope you enjoyed our build-up – not quite to the level of Joshua’s – and the coverage of the fight itself.

It was a blockbuster performance from the man who would be king of the heavyweight division.

A huge fight awaits Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Uysk, which will set up the most mouthwatering of fights after Joshua’s display in Riyadh.

Saturday and Sunday are packed with T20 international cricket and Premier League football, so please tune in if you can.
