Knockout Chaos results: Anthony Joshua brutally KOs Francis Ngannou in Round 2

Former UFC champion Francis Ngannou’s second venture in the boxing ring did not go as well as his first, with Anthony Joshua ending the fight early and violently.

The heavyweight boxing bout headlined Joshua vs. Ngannou: Knockout Chaos at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Joshua (28-3) scored three total knockdowns in the fight, the last of which put Ngannou (0-2) out cold at 2:38 of Round 2.

The fight started fairly well for Ngannou, but it would not last long. He immediately landed a nice left hook to begin the fight, and continued to offer the same technique in the opening moments. Joshua scored to the body, and then began studying the distance and movement behind a left jab. Ngannou landed a solid right hand, but things quickly turned from there.
