Dan Hardy likes Francis Ngannou’s chances against Anthony Joshua.
Former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou (0-1) takes on former heavyweight boxing champion Joshua (27-3, 24 KOs) in a 10-round boxing match March 8 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Ngannou battled Tyson Fury to a close split decision in his boxing debut this past October, when he was able to knock down the WBC champ.
Ngannou’s performance shocked the combat sports world, but Hardy said Joshua knows what he’s up against now.
