Presidency sends message to Anthony Joshua over Ngannou knockout

Anthony Joshua, a heavyweight boxer, has received congratulations from the President for his victory over Francis Ngannou.

According to Bayo Onanuga, Special Advisor to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Joshua may go up against Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury next.

Using a strong right hand in the opening round and a mix of right and left hooks early in the second, Joshua thoroughly defeated the Cameroonian. The referee stopped the contest as Ngannou rose to his feet but was swiftly knocked down again with a powerful right hand.

Posting on X, Onanuga wrote: “Congratulations Anthony Joshua a.k.a AJ for knocking out Francis Ngannou in the second round of the heavyweight bout in Riyadh. AJ after the fight has words for the media: “You know what I’ve noticed with you lot (the media). Your life changes when you lose. But when you win it’s just on to the next.

“The heavyweight division is a tough game. We got the job done and people can question me. But I’m not even buzzing with this win. On to the next.

“Next may be a shot with the winner of Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.”
