Anthony Joshua Set for Comeback Fight on July 25

Anthony Joshua, the British-Nigerian boxer and former unified heavyweight champion, is scheduled to return to the boxing ring on July 25 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This fight marks his first since a serious car accident earlier in the year, which left two close friends with minor injuries.

Joshua will face Albanian heavyweight Kristian Prenga in a warm-up bout, which is part of an event associated with the esports World Cup. The fight will be broadcast live on DAZN.

Joshua has signed a two-fight deal for the Riyadh season and is preparing for a highly anticipated showdown against Tyson Fury later this year. He has taken time to consolidate and rebuild his form after the accident, stating that he is eager to return to action and pick up where he left off.
