"I Should be the WBC Heavyweight Champion of the World!" - AJ Claims After Victory Over Francis Ngannou..

British professional boxer of Nigerian descent Anthony Oluwafemi Joshua a.k.a AJ claims he 'should be WBC heavyweight champion of the world' after his stunning victory over Francis Ngannou since the ex-UFC star BEAT title holder Tyson Fury when they fought back in October last year.

Joshua needed just two rounds to end the fight with the former UFC champion after landing a huge right-hook during the main event.  

He sent Ngannou tumbling to the canvas once in the first-round before doing so twice more in the second - with the third knockdown proving crucial.

Afterwards, during his post-fight press conference, Joshua suggested he should now claim the WBC title and reflected on Ngannou's previous fight with Tyson Fury.  

"Francis Ngannou beat the WBC heavyweight champion of the world. I should be WBC heavyweight champion of the world right now! He's a great fighter"... Says AJ.

"He stopped me. He did what Tyson Fury couldn't do. It wasn’t my day and he was much better than me today"... Added Ngannou.
