Rumble in the Jungle 2: Anthony Joshua wooed to fight in DR Congo
Anthony Joshua has been approached to fight in DR Congo where the Rumble in the Jungle was staged 45 years ago.
The Democratic Republic of Congo, then-called Zaire in 1974 when Muhammad Ali’s rope-a-dope tactics outfoxed George Foreman in a legendary heavyweight title fight, now wants to host a Joshua fight.
“[Promoter Eddie Hearn] is exploring an option in [Congo]. There has been an approach,” Joshua’s manager Freddie Cunningham told Sky Sports.
