Anthony Joshua to Fight Kristian Prenga on July 25

British-Nigerian boxer Anthony Joshua will return to the boxing ring on July 25, 2023, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he will face Albanian heavyweight Kristian Prenga. This fight is significant as it marks Joshua's first bout following a serious car accident earlier in the year, which left two close friends with minor injuries.

The event is linked to the esports World Cup and 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 not fought since his knockout victory over Jake Paul in December. Joshua expressed his eagerness to return to action, stating that he has taken time to consolidate and rebuild his form, focusing on his next steps in his boxing journey.
