Joshua survives two first-round knockdowns to stop Prenga and keep Fury’s fight on track

DOWN TWICE, OUT NEVER: AJ STOPS PRENGA IN ROUND TWO

Anthony Joshua was knocked down twice in the opening round by Kristian Prenga in Jeddah before roaring back to stop his opponent in the second round, Reuters reports.
