Anthony Joshua made light work of Francis Ngannou.
The former unified heavyweight champion did exactly what Tyson Fury couldn’t and laid out the MMA star in brutal fashion.

Fury had welcomed Ngannou to professional boxing and was a heavy favourite going into their fight but shockingly was dropped before winning a controversial split-decision from the judges at ringside.

Speaking to Boxing Scene, Carl Froch claimed that Joshua’s one-sided victory over Ngannou has shown that Fury is on the decline when it comes to his ability inside the ring.
He said: “Fury must have just been having a really bad night – or, like I think, Fury’s past his best. He’s seen better days.”
“I study the sport and I study the fights, and Tyson Fury used to throw 30-plus feints a round. Feint, feint. Draw his opponent in, feint. Double jab, right hand. He’s not doing the feints anymore. He’s doing four or five feints. He’s slow on his feet.
“He’s been knocked down five times [in recent years]. When you’re hitting the floor and getting hit on the chin and not throwing feints and not as busy as you used to be, that means you’re past your best and you’re on the decline and you’re on the slide.”
