Joshua Warns Prenga Ahead of July 25 Bout in Jeddah

Anthony Joshua has issued a warning to Albanian heavyweight Kristian Prenga ahead of their scheduled bout on July 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Responding to Prenga's pre-fight predictions, Joshua stated that the Albanian is "digging his own grave" and that he should continue to dig deeper.

Joshua, who has a professional record of 29 wins and 4 losses, last fought in December against American Jake Paul, winning that match in six rounds. The 36-year-old two-time unified world heavyweight champion expressed confidence in his abilities, stating he knows exactly what he needs to do in the ring and respects all opponents.

He also mentioned that he is motivated following the tragic deaths of two close friends in a car accident in Sagamu, Nigeria, last December. Joshua acknowledged that Prenga, who has a record of 20 wins, 1 loss, and 20 knockouts, should not be underestimated, as he aims to climb the ranks towards a potential fight with Tyson Fury later this year.
