Anthony Joshua, Kristian Prenga on point ahead of heavyweight clash
Joshua vs. Prenga: Only on DAZN PPV - Saturday
Anthony Joshua makes his highly anticipated return to the ring in about 24 hours when he battles fellow heavyweight slugger Kristian Prenga from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, live and exclusively on DAZN PPV.
Before Joshua makes the walk into the ring, he and Prenga had one final faceoff at Friday's weigh-in. Both guys look to be in great shape.
Prenga weighed in first and was 261.4 pounds. The former two-time unified heavyweight champion tipped the scales at 251 pounds, one less than he did against Daniel Dubois in September and 7.6 heavier than his December contest with Jake Paul in which "AJ" couldn't weigh in more than 245.
Joshua (29-4, 26 KOs) returns for the first time since his sixth-round knockout of Paul. Prenga (20-1, 20 KOs) is coming off a first-round KO of Joe Jones in February.
