Even though he was impressive in his professional boxing debut, Francis Ngannou is once again a big underdog at the betting window. Ngannou (0-1) is set to face Anthony Joshua in a marquee heavyweight boxing match on March 8 in Saudi Arabia. It will be just the second professional boxing bout for Ngannou, following a competitive debut against WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury in October. According to FanDuel , Ngannou is a +500 underdog, meaning a $100 bet on the former UFC heavyweight champ would win $500. Joshua (27-3) is perhaps unsurprisingly a massive favorite in the contest. The former boxing champion opens as a -700 favorite, meaning a $700 wager would be needed to return a $100 profit.
