Andre Onana, the goalkeeper for Manchester United, has expressed his belief that former UFC world champion Francis Ngannou will emerge victorious over Anthony Joshua in tonight’s fight in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Ngannou, who is a fervent supporter of Manchester United, attended the team’s tour game in Las Vegas against Borussia Dortmund last summer. Coincidentally, Ngannou hails from Cameroon, just like Onana.
In an interview with Man United TV, Onana stated that Ngannou has the strength and ability to defeat the British boxer.
“I have a good friend of mine, Francis Ngannou,” Onana told us. “He is a world champion. He and Anthony Joshua will fight in Riyadh. I hope Ngannou will win,” Onana said as reported by Manchester United TV
“Anthony is a strong one as well but, on another day, you just have to enjoy it. The best is going to win and we are going to support all of them.
“Francis is a big United fan. I met him in Las Vegas last time, and he was happy when he heard that I was coming to Manchester United. So, for me, it’s something great.”
