Joshua tipped for shock loss
Anthony Joshua could come unstuck against Kristian Prenga, with the latter's sparring partner Brandon Moore tipping an upset.
The Briton mounts his first bout of 2026 this weekend against the Albianian, but the American believes he faces shock danger.
"[Prenga] looks really, really, really good in sparring right now," he told Sky Sports News. "It's going to be an entertaining fight.
"He has a good shot of beating him. He's bigger than Joshua. Joshua has a muscular physique, but Prenga's a bigger man."
Cruz seeking new challenges
Andy Cruz insists he is "ready for more challenges", with the star acknowledging he hopes to find a super-featherweight hold.
The star bounced back from a first career loss with a comfortable win against Abraham Montoya on Saturday in California.
Now, the star is chasing further success in the division, stating in his post-bout remarks: "Watch out, I'm ready for more challenges."
"I like challenges, and tonight was just that. My last fight didn't go my way, but I was able to demonstrate what I have this time."
Noakes not underestimating Berinchyk
Sam Noakes is not underestimating Denys Berinchyk despite his hefty loss to Keyshawn Davis, calling him "dangerous".
The pair will meet on the Moses Itauma-Filip Hrgovic undercard in London next month, and the Briton will not take his foe lightly.
“It’s a good name,” he told The Ring. “He’s a dangerous opponent. Losing to Keyshawn Davis doesn’t make him rubbish.”
"Keyshawn’s an anomaly. He’s been in with some of the best fighters. It’s going to be tricky, but I’m confident we’ll get the win."
