Anthony Joshua survived a huge scare to beat Kristian Prenga with an impressive second-round knockout victory in Saudi Arabia.
Joshua, who was fighting for the first time since his car crash in December which claimed the lives of his two close friends Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele, was knocked down twice in the opening round against Prenga.
The first came inside the opening 20 seconds as Prenga caught Joshua with a sharp uppercut.
Joshua was down for a second time as his gloves touched the canvas but was able to survive until the bell.
He then came out flying in the second round and floored Prenga with a huge three-punch combination which finished with a devastating right hand.
Joshua’s victory has now set up a fight against Tyson Fury in November.
