Former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has told promoter Eddie Hearn that he has absolutely no interest in fighting newcomer Francis Ngannou but he is focused on becoming a world champion again.
The British-Nigerian said this to Hearn when they discussed the opportunity of the big-money crossover clash.
The 44-year-old boxing promoter explained that Joshua expressed zero interest in taking on the former UFC heavyweight champion, despite knowing the major money that could be earned.
When they discussed the possibility, the Hearn claims that it was not even on his fighter’s radar, which is covered completely by his path back to heavyweight gold.
