Anthony Joshua vs Kristian Prenga: Eddie Hearn praises AJ's resilience ahead of July return and future Tyson Fury fight

Anthony Joshua is set to return to the ring on July 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, facing Albanian boxer Kristian Prenga in a warm-up bout ahead of a potential future fight with Tyson Fury. Promoter Eddie Hearn told Sky Sports that Joshua has been motivated by the deaths of his two childhood friends, Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele, who were killed in a car crash last December. Hearn praised Joshua's resilience after the tragedy, which caused the two-time heavyweight champion to take an extended break from the sport.
