Anthony Joshua vs Francis Ngannou: Nigerian boxer and Cameroon MMA star shine in trailer for knockout chaos
The two boxing titans, Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou, are the newest big action stars in town; they have released a Hollywood-style teaser for their forthcoming clash.
The lavish trailer for the fight on March 8 was made available by DAZN on Tuesday, and it could have easily been used as a teaser by any big motion picture studio.

"Knockout Chaos" is the title of the video, which opens with Ngannou declaring he'll take on AJ anytime, anywhere, after hearing the news about his clash being confirmed.
The two warriors happen to cross paths in the street shortly after, and a crowd gathers around them ready for an unscheduled fight.
Then, drawing inspiration from the iconic Street Fighter video series, the trailer shows the two fighting while switching between the real world and the virtual one.
AJ and Ngannou engage in a brutal sparring match that even sends one of them hurtling into space before colliding with Earth again.
After more than a minute of violence, the video concludes with both guys formally putting an end to the chaos by knocking each other out in the ring.
The trailer does a great job of promoting Francis Ngannou's return to heavyweight boxing, where he will once more be competing against Anthony Joshua, another top-tier opponent.

This amazing opportunity is Francis Ngannou's reward for startling the combat sports community by not only knocking down lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury during their contest but also forcing the fight to a split decision.
As impressive as Joshua has appeared since his two heartbreaking defeats to Usyk, it is still plausible that Ngannou will prevail in this match.
If the actual fight is anything like the teaser, it should be a lot of fun.
Joshua and Ngannou's fight is scheduled to take place at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh.
