Overview
- Organisers announced at a London press conference on Monday that Anthony Joshua’s July 25 fight with Kristian Prenga has been moved from Riyadh to the Jeddah Superdome and the pair staged a heated face‑off at the event.
- Promoters and Saudi backers brokered a two‑fight agreement that starts with Joshua–Prenga and is structured so a contracted Joshua–Tyson Fury megafight will proceed only if both men win their designated warm‑ups.
- Kristian Prenga enters as a 20‑1 puncher with all 20 wins by knockout but limited top‑level experience, which promoters say makes him a dangerous, high‑risk tune‑up opponent for Joshua.
- DAZN is set to stream the July 25 Jeddah card while media reports link the proposed Fury bout later in the year to a global streamer such as Netflix, highlighting major commercial stakes for the package.
- Joshua frames the return as a personal comeback after a fatal December car crash and has pledged support for the victims’ families, with his performance on July 25 likely to shape both his momentum and whether the Fury fight proceeds.
