Anthony Joshua beats Francis Ngannou via second-round knockout in Saudi Arabia to avoid incredible upset against former UFC heavyweight champion; Ngannou is floored three times as Joshua moves step closer to potential clash with Tyson Fury.

Joshua floored a shell-shocked Ngannou with a vicious right hand in the opening round before knocking down the former UFC heavyweight champion twice in the next, the second of which would leave Ngannou flat out for the count.

It arrived as the most destructive knockout of Joshua’s career to follow up statement stoppages over Robert Helenius and Otto Wallin in reigniting his pursuit of another world title opportunity.
