As followers know, we are going to see two power-punching British heavyweights going at it at Wembley in September, this as former two-time heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua will problem Daniel Dubois for the IBF belt. On paper, AJ will turn out to be a three-time heavyweight ruler if he beats Dubois, but in all fact, Joshua can have regained a portion of the crown, together with his two-time conqueror Oleksandr Usyk being the actual world champion and with everybody understanding it.
Nonetheless, it could be a very good win for Joshua, and the holding of the IBF belt might solely assist his profession so far as him having the ability to negotiate a deal for an even bigger struggle down the highway.. However will Joshua beat Dubois?
Frank Warren, promoter after all of Tyson Fury, says Dubois will KO Joshua, in so doing ending Joshua, and Eddie Hearn’s, lofty plans of dealing with the Usyk-Fury rematch winner. Talking with Discuss Sport, Warren mentioned his man Dubois is an even bigger puncher than Joshua and that, at age 26, he has matured and has actually come into his personal as a fighter.
Warren says Dubois has realized from. the 2 losses he has suffered (to Joe Joyce and to Usyk) and that he’ll shock AJ on September 21. Loads of different individuals really feel the other, that Joshua will join with a bomb of a proper hand on Dubois’ chin and that will likely be that. Definitely, Dubois was there to be hit with the correct hand in his final struggle, when he stopped Filip Hrgovic to take the interim IBF belt (Usyk since vacating, Dubois elevated to the complete belt-holder).
And If – or when – Joshua lands flush with the correct the way in which Hrgovic did repeatedly, it could possibly be curtains for Dubois. However Dubois can bang himself, and we might witness an actual explosion on this struggle. Whoever lands first wins? Possibly.
Each Joshua and Dubois hit very laborious, and as Warren says, each males have a very good left jab. Types make fights although, and from this vantage level, Dubois appears to be like virtually tailored for AJ. I disagree with Warren when he says Dubois carries the larger firepower, too. However this struggle will likely be thrilling, it should finish by way of KO, more than likely a violent one, and a sold-out Wembley will likely be rocking on the night time.
My decide is Joshua inside two dominant rounds. Warren says in any other case. What do you guys assume?
