Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua returns to the ring to face Albanian fighter Kristian Prenga at the Jeddah Superdome in Saudi Arabia. This bout carries immense personal and professional weight for Joshua, marking his first fight since a tragic car crash in Nigeria last December that claimed the lives of close friends and team members [[2]].

Joshua, now 36, needs this victory to pave the way for a rumored showdown with Tyson Fury later this year.
