All results from the Anthony Joshua vs Kristian Prenga main fight card

Jacob Bank vs Pawel August

Up next was the super middleweight division, with Danish fighter Jacob Bank (20-0, 11 KOs) vs Polish-born fighter Pawel August (18-1, 7 KOs). Bank has impressed in recent fights, scoring a KO win over William Scull two fights ago. August last fought on the Tyson Fury vs Arslanbek Makhmudov card, where he upset Simon Zachenhuber.

August started well, establishing his jab, but Bank looked untroubled and began to find his range off the back foot as the round developed. Bank began to show his impressive lateral movement and shot selection in the second round. The Danish fighter controlled the third round with his jab and stinging counters. 

August continued to show bravery over the next few rounds, but Bank continued to dominate with his slick movement and accuracy, leaving August frustrated and often two steps behind. Bank enjoyed a strong end to the fight, staying in complete control. His variation in his work was outstanding throughout, as he won 80-72 x3 on the judges’ scorecards. That was impressive from Bank! Could we have a new star in the super middleweight division?

Nishant Dev vs Cesar Diaz

In the first fight on the Anthony Joshua vs Kristian Prenga main undercard, we saw the undefeated prospect Nishant Dev (7-0, 5 KOs) vs Cesar Diaz (10-3, 5 KOs) in the super welterweight division.

Diaz took the centre of the ring in the first round, but Dev showed patience and looked to establish his jab. Dev quickly put together a smart combination, flooring Diaz. A short, sharp uppercut saw Dev score a second knockdown. Diaz showed his bravery to fight on, but the Indian fighter pounced, put together a series of hurtful punches, including a big right hand. Diaz fell to the canvas for a third time, leading the referee to wave the fight off, awarding Nishant Dev the first-round TKO victory. It was an impressive performance from the 25-year-old southpaw.
