Demetrious Johnson, the ONE promotion's champion, answered the question of whether Anthony Joshua can beat Francis Ngannouin a rematch under mixed martial arts rules.

"Can Joshua beat Fury in a rematch under MMA rules? I think yes. It's going to be another striking fight. Joshua has a great feel for distance. He works his hands better. I think he can make Ngannou miss. Of course, Francis could change his tactics and start wrestling and clinch with Joshua. But Anthony is physically strong, he's athletic. I think he will be able to deliver his punch again and knock out Ngannou," - said Johnson.

Recall, March 8 in Riyadh, Ngannou and Joshua held a boxing match, in which the British boxer won by knockout in the second round.
