Justis Huni Secures Spot on Joshua vs. Ngannou Undercard in Riyadh

Australia's undefeated heavyweight, Justis Huni, is set to make his presence felt on the undercard of the highly anticipated clash between Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The event is scheduled to take place on Saturday, March 9 (AEDT). Huni (8-0, 4 KOs) last entered the ring in October, claiming victory over American Andrew Tabiti in Cancun, Mexico. The 24-year-old fighter, based in Brisbane, successfully made his international debut as a professional, securing the WBA International belt with a unanimous decision after 10 rounds. The name of Huni's opponent for the upcoming event is expected to be revealed shortly. In the main event, former two-time unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (27-3, 24 KOs) will face off against former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou (0-1) in a 10-round bout that promises fireworks. The co-main event features Chinese heavyweight Zhilei Zhang (26-1-1, 21 KOs) defending his interim WBO strap against New Zealand's Joseph Parker (34-3, 23 KOs). Additionally, Mexico’s WBC featherweight champion Rey Vargas (36-1, 22 KOs) is set to defend his title against British contender Nick Ball (19-0, 11 KOs). With the spotlight on the marquee matchups, Huni's inclusion adds another layer of excitement to an already stacked card in Riyadh. Boxing enthusiasts can expect a night filled with high-stakes action as these fighters vie for supremacy in their respective divisions. #JustisHuni #JoshuaVsNgannou #RiyadhBoxing #HeavyweightShowdown #BoxingUndercard
