Anthony Joshua slated to fight Kristian Prenga in Saudi Arabia on July 25

Anthony Joshua Kristian Prenga Saudi Arabia July 25 fight heavyweight boxing

Matchroom Boxing has not announced an official bout between former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua and Albanian contender Kristian Prenga, leaving dates, venue and broadcast details unconfirmed. Despite the lack of formal confirmation, boxing media reports and speculation have linked the fight to a July 25 event in Saudi Arabia.

Joshua himself told DAZN Boxing that he intends to hurt Prenga and view the match as a "tune‑up" ahead of a potential showdown with Tyson Fury later in the year. He emphasized personal motivation and the need to prove his power, while also acknowledging the pressure to secure a win for his fans and future title aspirations.

If the fight proceeds as expected, it would be broadcast in the United Kingdom (potentially via DAZN) and could serve as a pivotal step for Joshua toward another world‑title opportunity.
