Kristian Prenga gains reputation despite knockout loss to Anthony Joshua

Kristian Prenga faced Anthony Joshua in Jeddah on July 29, where he was knocked out in the second round. However, Prenga's performance, including dropping Joshua twice, gained him attention in the heavyweight division despite the defeat. Other fighters, such as Jacob Bank and Abdullah Mason, also made significant strides this month, with Bank set to challenge for a WBO world title and Mason successfully defending his title. Murat Gassiev emerged as a heavyweight champion following changes in the division as Oleksandr Usyk relinquished his title.
