Former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou has delivered a terrifying reaction to boxing promoter Eddie Hearn’s confident claims that Joshua will make ‘easy money’ inside the ring.

In a recent interview with The MMA Hour, Ngannou addressed Hearn’s assessment, stating that Hearn is a promoter and makes such remarks regularly. However, Ngannou wasted no time in stating his resolve to put Joshua to the test and prove the critics wrong. He retorted to Hearn’s statement by saying that he had heard rumors about Anthony Joshua’s weak chin. 

I heard that [Anthony Joshua] doesn't have a chin. I'm going to find out…"I think he's still the same fighter, that doesn't mean he can't lose...he lost to Andy Ruiz, and Oleksandr Usyk, and he can still lose. I'm intending to hand him another loss on March 8th. You can still be who you are, and still lose. Nobody is undefeated.
