This time, there's no debate, Francis Ngannou didn't make the cut. After his encouraging fight against Tyson Fury, the Cameroonian former MMA champion was sent back to his studies by Anthony Joshua. The Briton lived up to his billing by stunning Ngannou in the 2nd round.
In the first round, he had already sent him a message by sending him to the mat. AJ thus scored a convincing win and pocketed $50 million. He'll surely take the winner between Fury and Usyk to go for the belts.
Ngannou also bolstered his bank account with $20 million. Will he return to MMA after his two losses in the ring? Maybe, even if Joshua advises him to stay in boxing. "Don't quit boxing, you're the next Tyson. If you need anything, we'll talk later," AJ told Francis.
