Anthony Joshua is on a collision course with Tyson Fury, but he will have to get through Kristian Prenga first.
The unknown Albanian heavyweight has been selected as a tune-up opponent for AJ ahead of the long-awaited all-British showdown, tentatively pencilled in for November.
Prenga (20-1) isn’t expected to cause Joshua too many problems, though he does boast a 100 per cent knockout ratio.
That being said, the 35-year-old has never fought anyone close to Joshua’s calibre, while his sole defeat came at the hands of a journeyman with a losing record.
Joshua (29-4) hasn’t set foot in the ring since his knockout victory over YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.
Shortly after the win, he was involved in a fatal car accident that killed two of his close friends and left him in the hospital with minor injuries.
Joshua will look to blow off the cobwebs against Prenga before the big one at the end of the year.
