Although the bout is formidable, Joshua is the clear favorite — especially with a record of 27-3. However, Ngannou is no slouch himself. Despite his 0-1 record, the Cameroon-born fighter is known for his punching power, while he’s also hungry to get his first win as a professional boxer. It’s going to be a hot one in Saudi Arabia!
