The Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou card continues to be built.
On March 8 in Saudi Arabia, 'AJ' and 'The Predator' will collide in a heavyweight main event. Joshua comes into the bout riding a three-fight winning streak, last stopping Otto Wallin last December. Meanwhile, Ngannou is coming off a split-decision loss in his boxing debut to Tyson Fury.
In keeping with other Saudi Arabia events, this one is expected to be a stacked one. As of now, the fight includes several other high-profile bouts. In the co-main event, WBO interim heavyweight champion Zhilei Zhang will look to defeat former titleholder Joseph Parker.

As reported by Ring Magazine, Israil Madrimov vs. Magomed Kurbanov will go down on March 8. 'The Dream' currently holds an undefeated 9-0-1 record, previously defeating Raphael Igbokwe by decision last April. 'Black Lion' also holds an undefeated record at 24-0, last defeating Michael Soro last May.
The fight itself is expected to be for the WBA light middleweight title. That championship is currently held by Jermell Charlo. However, 'Iron Man' hasn't defended the title since a May 2022 win over Brian Castano.
Charlo was previously the undisputed light middleweight champion but has already relinquished the WBC, IBF, and WBO titles. Now, it seems that his WBA gold will be gone next.
