Bivola's trainer is happy with the result of Joshua's fight with Ngannou

Gennady Mashyanov, coach of WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol, commented on the result of the fight between Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou.

"A natural result that pleased me. Joshua did the job that Tyson Fury had to do. But the latter approached the fight after sleeves. Everyone thought that you can move to boxing from MMA and beat champions. In boxing, you have to have technical and tactical mastery, not rely on street smarts. Joshua showed the difference in class."

The bout between Joshua and Ngannou took place tonight, headlining an evening of boxing in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It took Anthony two partial rounds to finish Francis. It's worth noting that Ngannou was knocked down in the first round.
