Prenga ready to 'break' Joshua and ruin Fury plans

The pair clash in Jeddah, exclusively live on DAZN and DAZN PPV, with Joshua hoping a victory can spark the next chapter of his career into life. 

In the boxing world, Prenga is an unknown name. The 35-year-old has featured in 21 professional contests and boasts a record of 20-1, with all 20 of his wins coming by way of knockout. 

These career numbers are impressive, but Joshua is the only notable name of note he will have faced since making his professional debut 10 years ago. 

'I'm going to break his plan' 

For Prenga, there will be a lot of fanfare during fight week. 

Whenever Joshua fights, a mass audience follows, especially with this contest serving as the prelude for a proposed meeting with Tyson Fury later this year. 

But does Joshua's standing as one of the best heavyweights alter Prenga's perception of the 36-year-old? 

"I don’t think he is one of the best heavyweights in the world, but he’s a great fighter," Prenga told DAZN's Ade Oladipo.

Prenga expects to expose AJ 'flaws'

Instead, Prenga is relishing his role as a significant. He claims that Joshua and his team have underestimated him, and he's ready to punish AJ for putting arrangements in place for a date with Fury before their fight has taken place in Jeddah. 

"He’s a great fighter, but I think he has a lot of flaws," Prenga continued. 

"It’s not offended me, I’m happy because they have underestimated me. I don’t think it’s a good idea making plans to fight Tyson Fury.

"I’m going to break his plan."

When it came to making a prediction, Prenga is expecting it the finish to come within the scheduled distance. 

"It’s not going to go 10, 12 rounds or however long the fight is going to be."

Prenga comes into this fight on the back of an impressive run of form which has seen him amass a 16-fight knockout streak, and if he extends this to 17 against Joshua, it will be one of the biggest boxing upsets in recent memory.
