Heavyweight bout serves as critical tune-up for British star

Anthony Joshua and Kristian Prenga are scheduled to meet in the heavyweight division at the Jeddah Superdome in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, 25 July 2026. The event, officially titled "Danger Before Destiny", will be broadcast exclusively as a pay-per-view on DAZN. This contest is widely viewed as a necessary preparation step for Joshua, who is positioning himself for a potential unification clash with Tyson Fury later in the year.

The heavyweight bout is contingent on both Joshua and Fury securing victories in their respective tune-up fights. While Joshua faces Prenga in Jeddah, Fury is set to face Mariusz Wach in Thailand. The ultimate objective for both fighters is a scheduled meeting at Wembley Stadium in late 2026, pending the successful completion of these preliminary bouts.

Coverage for the event begins at 1 p.m. ET, with the main ringwalks for the Joshua and Prenga fight scheduled for 6 p.m. ET. The event features a substantial undercard that includes significant domestic interest, particularly for British audiences. Hamzah Sheeraz will defend his WBO super-middleweight title against Simon Zachenhube, while Josh Kelly will defend his IBF super-welterweight title against Caoimhin Agyarko.

Additional bouts on the card include Reito Tsutsumi versus Alvino Herrera in the super-featherweight division, Jakob Bank against Pawel August in the middleweight division, and Nishant Dev versus Cesar Diaz in the super-welterweight category. DAZN, which broadcasts over 185 fights annually across boxing, MMA, PFL, and BKFC, serves as the sole broadcaster for the event.

Viewers can access the Joshua vs Prenga fight on DAZN for $59.99. The platform has also introduced a new subscription tier, DAZN Ultimate, priced at $49.99 per month with an annual commitment. This tier provides access to at least 12 pay-per-view fights per year, alongside the standard subscription content which costs $20.99 per month or $224.99 upfront annually.
