Anthony Joshua sparring partner Jeamie TKV says the former heavy weight champion will knock out Francis Ngannou and set a date with Tyson Fury
TKV hasn’t just had a ringside seat to watch Joshua’s preparations for his March 8 clash with Ngannou; he’s been inside the ropes to experience just how effective the former unified world heavyweight champion still is.
TKV believes Joshua will demonstrate his full capabilities against one-time UFC champion Ngannou.
A stylish Joshua victory will also shift public perception once again.
When AJ was winning everyone loved him,” TKV said. “You weren’t talking about this or that when he was winning. He’s achieved so much, fights everyone, how can you hate on a guy like that?”
TKV is convinced a destructive showing against Ngannou will lead Joshua to a long-awaited showdown with Tyson Fury.
“That’s the thing with boxing sometimes. Fury was probably the greatest heavyweight at one point to everyone. He had one bad night – he’s ‘the worst heavyweight ever’. You see how things changed,” TKV explained.
Joshua vs Ngannou comes up on Friday March 8.
