British sports promoter, Eddie Hearn has said that he cannot wait for Anthony Joshua to beat Tyson Fury after destroying Francis Ngannou.
Joshua asserted his dominance from the opening bell, scoring a huge first round knockdown when he flattered Ngannou with a vicious right.
The British-Nigerian boxer then knocked out the Cameroonian in two rounds.
Speaking after the bout in Saudi Arabia on Friday night, Hearn said as quoted by Metro UK:
“I am so proud of him because there was a huge amount of pressure.
“On this form, there is no man that can beat him. Tyson Fury please beat Usyk because you will get the biggest fight in the history of the sport.
“He is a fighter, he is an inspiration to young people. What I said would happen, happened. He destroyed Francis Ngannou. He is a beast and I cannot wait for him to beat Tyson Fury.”
Joshua will now hope to fight the winner of Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, who meet in their historic undisputed title showdown on 18 May.
