Anthony Joshua takes on Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia on Friday night

Friday night sees a massive night of Boxing take place with Anthony Joshua facing Francis Ngannou as part of Riyadh Season in Saudi Arabia.

Joshua is the heavy favourite to win the bout at 1/4 with bookmakers as the British fighter is looking to replicate Tyson Fury's win over Ngannou back in October.

Fury's stock crumbled after that victory after Ngannou dropped him in his debut fight and Francis will be looking to do one better here.

Ngannou's odds to win the fight are 11/4 and he'll be wanting to put in a similar performance that he did in October where many thought he was robbed against Fury.

Paddy Power's latest betting odds give an implied probability of 26% that Ngannou wins the fight tomorrow with Joshua's chances at 80%.

I think Nganu's odds are fair given Josgua's long odds on. The crossover fights, for my money, are spoiling both sports and made it a circus. But the heavyweight scene globally has been very poor for years and it was inevitable. Most top 10 fighters of the 80s and 90s would slaughter any of today's top 3. AJ needs fights over in the first half or he struggles to feed his muscles the oxygen and is there for a scrapper as scene when he was beaten up by an overweight Mexican.Nganu is used to the 3-5 round matches and scrapping in the cage.If it gets rough early, which suits the cage fight, then AJ may be floored yet again. He's made no secret of his love of money being greater than of boxing.Its business.
