- Anthony Joshua fights Francis Ngannou on Friday 8th March at Knockout Chaos in Saudi Arabia. AJ's impressive performance against Wallin was aided by the work of Ben Davison - a trainer who's worked with the likes of Tyson Fury, Devin Haney and Josh Taylor previously. Ben admits that he treats every fight the same, but with the strength and power of Joshua, he's definitely felt a few shots more in this training camp than some others.

FAMILIAR FACE Why is Ben Davison training Anthony Joshua for Francis Ngannou fight?
ANTHONY JOSHUA will take on UFC legend Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia on Friday night.
AJ goes in to the fight on the back off a huge win over Otto Wallin in December.
The British heavyweight is aiming to win his fourth fight on the spin as he continues to rebuild his career following back-to-back defeats to Oleksandr Usyk.
Meanwhile, Francis Ngannou has only just begun his journey in boxing after the former UFC champion made his debut in the sport against Tyson Fury last year.
The Cameroonian powerhouse dropped the undefeated Gypsy King in the third round before going on to lose via split decision in controversial fashion.
Ngannou will be out to cause a huge upset on Friday night as he seeks his first professional win in boxing.

Period
Right
I nearly subscribed then realised its *the sun*
😂😂😁🤣
👍🙌
LMAO
I'm curious, what not to like about Vitamin D? Please share
You a scouser? I agree the Sun is shit! 😊
Thank you Ben. Tell AJ he's gonna have a great weekend. you too buddy. Bless
Ben Davidson's strength is that he's a good reader of people's character. He understands human nature, and especially the emotional mentality of fighters. When you take that to a training camp, you can get the best out of people.
Not sure who this Ben Davidson is you speak of but he doesn't sound like he's anywhere near as good as Ben Davison
Yeah he’s great. Still says would of and should of though.
Ben has proven himself again, AJ is clearly better since joining Ben
Professor...so humble guy.....this guy a created a beast
I love how Ben Davidson say's "it's about having respect and that's the way it should be". Much respect to him, he's a credit to the sport. He's clearly great for AJ, what a team!
People were underestimated AJ soo much, I said it and now here it is 🎉🎉🎉🎉 congratulations My favourite Boxer
Such a loyal man and been great for a.j good stuff good luck for tonight
AJ and Ben combo is unstoppable
Ben is such a good trainer, can't believe he's so young yet this good.
I really like Ben... Don't understand the flack he gets... Best thing thats happened to AJ..
His results are what matter and he is clearly good at his job.
He has amassed plenty of failures in his short career. Plus he's a brit. So you know he's fighting against boxing itself.
@@A0142-m1jd1 hater
Well done to AJ for proving me wrong. You are now the best in the world. Congratulations all the best in your next fights. Well done Ben a job well done
Ben is the best trainer in uk.hes humble and very faithful,respectful,polite,and he doesnt get enough credit
Fans and media are very fickle. AJ/ Ben relationship has only occurred since Wallin. AJ was on the up with Derrick James with 2 wins against Franklin and Helenius. People say AJ didn't look good, but he just started with a new coach off the back of 2 defeats to Usyk.
Ultimately, i do think AJ is improving but on his own independent of the coach- he's smart and knows what insights to take from any coach.
Despite that the AJ/ Davison partnership might prove to be fruitful, but we should conclude this after 3/4 fights against decent opposition. If AJ beats Ngannou that might be 2 under Davison's belt.
Derrick James is a bum, as proven recently.. he didn’t do well, snd he wasn’t trying things.. you do know that Ben was there for Franklin, right? He was in the background.. Joshua needs to stop working for blacks, they’re dumb.
Exactly.
Yes but he didn’t look anywhere near on form compared to when he joined Ben just like Leigh wood look what he did for Leigh’s career
Totally Agree... Actually Derrick James has made AJ a better boxer even his Jabs and straight right hand is all Derrick James coaching. His form was improved and sharpened under James
I believe Ben is what AJ needed all alone after that first loss to ruiz
Fairplay to him man. Top coach. I'd love to know how he does it.
It's crazy that he'll likely be in the opposite corner to fury if/when they meet.
You have done well with AJ you've brought back his killer instinct. He destroyed ngannou in 2 rounds with ease. Beast mode. And Tyson looked scared of AJ their 😂. Thankyou for saving boxing aj something Tyson couldn't do yet again.
Love Ben Davidson. Awesome coach and way ahead of his age.
Ben came out of seemingly nowhere and seems like one of the best coaches in the world
Ben is a great trainer, and very decent bloke. I have absolutely 100% respect for him, I could not say a bad word about him.
AJ is a pleb, and I don't know why Ben would waste his time with him, but I guess the money is amazing.
If it’s wasted time training a 2 time heavyweight champ then he’s in the wrong game. AJ will always get stick from people for whatever reason, you can’t deny what he’s done for British boxing tho.
If you think AJ is a pleb he must be a very successful pleb .
Haters gonna hate.
Good luck to Ben ( not eggy Benn ) and the team 🙏
Top trainer under rated but gaining fans in and out of the sport
Well done Ben, you have the right way for AJ to fight.
Thank you Grandmaster Ben.
Poor click bait headline. Why can't sport interviewers be more respectful.
Good interview. Respect ben a lot.. been good for the sport. Hopefully good for aj too 🤞🙏
The change in ajs persona is down to ben
HE is so David Brent!!
His nothing like Ricky gervais 😂
Maybe for a stupid amercian. But must say when I watched the last Parker Fight i thought Ricky Gervais was at Joes corner for a brief moment :P
Mastermind
I think after the defeat to the Andy Ruiz AJ's confidence was shattered,but with hard work and the right people who realised his true potential around him we now have a stronger more mature and mentally tougher AJ,we can all breath a little easier now that AJ has rescued boxing from the realms of the ridiculous
This AJ performance will eclipse the Wallin performance.
@@Irongaint Walk in the park for AJ! We need to give credit where it is due. Well done AJ on to the next.
HAAAAAAAAAAA WERE ARE YOUS ALL NOW I CANT F’in hear yas now casual Francis fans sayin AJ WUD LOSE! Well F the lot of yous idiots AJ is back & he just destroyed ya boy Francis😂 Fury is getting knocked tha F out!!!!😂😂😂 HOW STUPID DOES TYSON FURY LOOK NOW!!' SITTING THERE LIKE A FXXXX’N LEMON CLAPPING HIS HANDS! FURY THE DOSSER IS GETTING IT!!! 💥🥊
You are arguing with nobody. lol what a weird comment
"Everyone has a game plan until they get punched in the face !" Wallin was Joshua's sparring partner he's beat him up 100s of times. He had zero pressure on his shoulders ! This fight is totally different !
Yeh it was a much easier fight as he was fighting a novice.
@@molt3n412 Joshua did the exact same thing Fury did, hit Ngannou as hard as he could with his right hand in the first 2 rounds. Joshua just has more POWER it's THAT simple !
I like ben davidson his lije old school mixed in with new school.his obv meticulous. I believe he can come up with a gane plain to beat any with aj
If AJ wins this fight it will be down to this guy. All my money is on Ngannou absolute monster of a human but who knows what could happen 🤷♂️
MUMU. Is it the coach that will enter the ring to fight Ngannou? How senseless can people be? If he loses to Ngannou, you will blame AJ and say he is trash, he doesn't have chin. But if he wins, you will praise the coach. You are clearly a moron.
Mygggg Aj 🤫🔥💯
Hats off
Trainer of the year 2024
Ben is the best feather about trainer in the world.
Hands down😂
Joshua coach is younger than Joshua😂 Good luck guys and sweet dreams.
Great Trainer 😊
AJ performance agains Wallin was far from impressive.
Martyr. So given. Lol
Dude👍
Don't want to watch this, how did he sacrifice his body?
It's shocking. I can't actually repeat it here. I'm numb from what I just watched
If Aj stops dubois before round 7 then. Yea Aj is a bit unstoppable
Better coach than Freddie roach.
So u love & respect Fury a lot so if Aj v Fury & Fury a little hurt or tired ready for next round r u telling Aj go take him out or u compromise yr lead.?..See ? this why its definitely a compromising situation to have yr nemesis ex coach ...Plus Fury cleverly throwing out those public compliments " Aj going half way across globe when theres a top coach round the corner "....Softens This coach for that fiture meeting..Not so future in fact because if Aj wins its probz next...Hmm..I wouldn't use such coach..
Tyson fury hired ben davidson
Tyson Fury is the King of boxing and beats everyone. AJ beat Wallen 5 years after Fury did. AJ beat Francis who Fury played with him all 10 rounds and never trained or took him seriously. Just sit back with your popcorn and watch Fury wipe out the rest of division TBC…..
😂😂😂...leave the crack alone dude....Fury is a complete fraud....put the pipe down your having sever hallucinations and complete delusion 😂😅
👂hahaha😂
See what happens when AJ get hurt again..if folds or can go to plan B..
Ben one tactic Davison. Another reason Ngannou will win
lol
This aged poorly 🤡
It's what coaches do Ben don't big ya self up mate
Bensjust a dietican, Joshua has fought nobodys since usyk schooled him twice.Ben overrated trainer that's why John fury told Tyson to dump the dietican.
STFU...your trying to convince yourself...nobody's buying that jibberish 😂😂😂
Boxercise clearly works for some people 😂😂
