Daniel Dubois vs. Anthony Joshua appears to be scheduled for an announcement soon, and renowned trainer Peter Fury has recently commented on the enormous match.
The heavyweight division was expected to witness a confrontation between Joshua and Croatian Olympic Silver Medalist Filip Hrgovic for some time, but on June 1st, Dubois upset the status quo by stopping Hrgovic in round eight to win the IBF “Interim” world heavyweight title.
While ‘AJ’ might be too much for Dubois, Fury doesn’t count him out because of his recent improvements, according to his prediction for the possible fight, which he made in an interview with Boxing Social.
They can both punch, for sure, which makes them quite interesting.
Joshua would have to be your choice due to his experience, quickness, and sharpness. He is also mixed at that extremely high level.
But in his last few bouts, Dubois has become more proficient. In a big way.
“Joshua is still in danger in this battle, but you would still have to give him the advantage for the experience alone. However, Dubois is a powerful puncher, so anything may happen with the small gloves.
Anthony Joshua is rumored to be the main attraction at the September 21st news conference, which will be held on Wednesday, June 26 at Wembley Stadium, according to His Excellency Turki Alalshikh.
On the undercard of Carl Froch and George Groves’ rematch in 2014, Joshua stopped Matt Legg in the first round of his first fight under the Wembley Arch. This would be his fourth fight overall.
After stopping heavyweight superstar Wladimir Klitschko in the eleventh round on one of the greatest nights in British boxing history in 2017, AJ returned to the Stadium as the main event star in 2018 when he knocked out Alexander Povetkin in the seventh round.
It is still unclear whether the IBF world title will be at stake in the highly anticipated heavyweight rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, which is scheduled for December 21 in Riyadh. A fight between Joshua and Dubois would have a significant impact on the heavyweight world title scene.
