LONDON – Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou crossed paths in person for the first time ahead of their March 8 boxing match during a press conference on Monday.
MMA Junkie was on-site for the festivities, and will has a video replay for anyone who missed it.
After delivering a stunning performance in a split decision loss to Tyson Fury in his professional boxing debut in October, former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou will attempt to get his first win in the sport when he takes on the highly ranked Joshua, who went 3-0 in 2023.
The two hulking heavyweights will answer questions and square off for the first time in advance of their fight, which takes place at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and airs on pay-per-view.
