Joshua Prepares for July 25 Fight Against Prenga
Anthony Joshua is preparing for his comeback bout against Albanian fighter Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Joshua, who has a record of 26 wins and 3 losses, is eager to return to the ring after his previous fight.
He watched Tyson Fury's recent match against Arslanbek Makhmudov from ringside, where Fury ended a 16-month retirement. Although Joshua is interested in a future face-off with Fury, he declined to participate in a stare-down at the event, emphasizing that a grudge match has not yet been signed.
Joshua is expected to finalize his contract for the July 25 fight soon. Meanwhile, Fury is scheduled to fight Mariusz Wach earlier that night.
Joshua expressed that he feels welcomed in Saudi Arabia, stating, "I feel welcome in the territory," and he is keen to scout potential future opponents. The bout is part of a larger plan to host significant boxing events in Saudi Arabia.
