Dillian Whyte says Francis Ngannou's 'false confidence' was punished by Anthony Joshua and he fully expected the MMA star to be brutally beaten. Joshua ruthlessly overpowered Ngannou on Friday night, flooring the former UFC heavyweight champion twice before a huge right hand ended the fight in the second round in Saudi Arabia.

'I tried to fight Ngannou four years ago,' he said. 'I would have definitely knocked him out. I said I would fight him in boxing and MMA. 'I always believed I could knock him out because the boxing ability isn't there. 'I think he is a good fighter but I don't think he is a good boxer. 'I believe I would have been able to find a hole, hit him with body shots, and catch him with right hands.
