Francis Ngannou is tipped to conquer the boxing world with a World Title win

Former UFC Champ Rashad Evans Predicts Ngannou's Boxing Success

Francis Ngannou, the former UFC heavyweight king, is set to make waves in the boxing world this year, according to former UFC light-heavyweight champion Rashad Evans. Evans believes that Ngannou has what it takes to become a world champion in boxing by the end of the year. Ngannou's impressive performance against Tyson Fury last October, where he cut and dropped the British boxer, has raised expectations for his upcoming fight against Anthony Joshua in Saudi Arabia next month.

Ngannou Confident in Knockout Victory

Despite facing a tougher challenge in Joshua, Ngannou remains confident in his ability to secure a knockout victory. In a recent interview, Ngannou expressed his belief that anything is possible and that he will be the one "taking [Joshua's] soul" in their upcoming bout. With his explosive power and relentless determination, Ngannou aims to derail Joshua's hopes of becoming a three-time world champion.

Joshua Gives Ngannou the Respect He Deserves

Joshua, who has had three wins on the bounce last year, is not underestimating Ngannou. Having witnessed Ngannou's close call with Fury, Joshua recognizes the Cameroonian's skills and the threat he poses. Joshua acknowledges Ngannou as the biggest puncher in the world and emphasizes the importance of not overlooking his opponent's boxing ability. He believes that Ngannou's performance against Fury proved his exceptional boxing skills both inside and outside the ring.

With the clash between Ngannou and Joshua just around the corner, the world of combat sports eagerly awaits this highly anticipated showdown. Will Ngannou continue his rise to boxing stardom, or will Joshua prove to be too much for the UFC sensation? Only time will tell.
