Anthony Joshua takes on Francis Ngannou this Friday.
The heavyweight giants collide in another Saudi extravaganza with the winner in line to fight either Tyson Fury or Oleksandr Usyk.
So clearly there is a lot on the line for both fighters but the pressure will really be on Joshua to deliver.

And Carl Froch has sent him a warning ahead of the eagerly anticipated clash.
Speaking on his YouTube channel Froch On Fighting he said:
βIf he hits AJ on the chin like [he did against Fury], AJ gets caught, he stays hurt, he takes ages to recover. He blew a gasket against Pulev. He was boxing, moving doing well then he needed four or five rounds off before he got the job done.
βHe wonβt have that time with Ngannou. Ngannou will put him on it, itβs only 10 round fight. Itβs kind of like an exhibition, which is why itβs dangerous for AJ. He needs to go in there and get it won and earn his money, which is the only reason heβs doing it.
βAJ is trying to get this undisputed fight with the winner of Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, but thatβs still going to be there for him, so this is potentially a real bad move if it goes wrong for him, as it could be the end of his career.β
