Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou: Sparring partner predicts how fight will be wonTop Rank
The two heavyweights fight on March 8 on DAZN.com.

Anthony Joshua’s sparring partner Jeamie TKV believes that the heavyweight will beat Francis Ngannou by knockout.

Joshua takes on Ngannou in Saudi Arabia on March 8 live on DAZN.com, and the two fighters appear relatively evenly matched, despite Ngannou’s lack of experience.

The Briton has three consecutive victories to his name after back-to-back losses against Oleksandr Usyk, with the most recent win an impressive stoppage against Otto Wallin at the end of last year.

Speaking to Sky Sports, TKV believes Joshau will also bring the fight with Ngannou to a premature close.

London heavyweight TKV believes Joshua will demonstrate his full capabilities against one-time UFC champion Ngannou.

"I personally think that AJ knocks him out," he said.

"He's fast. He's got good movement, he moves his feet very well and now he's been working on certain things where every time he moves, you've got to be on point.

"He's fast, he's sharp, strong. He's a very dangerous fighter overall."

TKV continued: "I feel like Ngannou, from the way I've been seeing him talk, he gave more respect to Tyson Fury than he's giving to AJ.

"When AJ was winning everyone loved him," TKV said. "You weren't talking about this or that when he was winning. He's achieved so much, fights everyone, how can you hate on a guy like that?"
