Although promoter Frank Warren says it’s “too quickly” for his fighter Daniel Dubois to be pondering too onerous about what his subsequent struggle can be – “he must savour the second,” Warren mentioned, referring in fact to Dubois’s beautiful KO win over Anthony Joshua – Warren himself has given some thought as to what might be subsequent for “DDD.” Talking with Discuss Sport this morning within the UK, Warren mentioned that though AJ has a rematch clause in his contract, Dubois doesn’t. However Warren mentioned he has no drawback placing Dubois in with Joshua a second time.
Additionally, Warren mentioned that in his opinion there may be nonetheless fan curiosity in a struggle between Tyson Fury and Joshua, this regardless of the cataclysmic knockout AJ suffered on Saturday evening.
“He doesn’t have a rematch in his contract. However there may be one in AJ’s contract,” Warren clarified. “I haven’t acquired an issue with a rematch in the event that they need to do it and the phrases are all okay. However it’s too quickly. He must savour the second, he has proven what he’s all about now preventing 4 world ranked fighters this yr. I don’t know (a couple of Fury-Joshua struggle now). I feel individuals should still need to see it, if he comes again and has a win who is aware of. Fury has to face Usyk first in a rematch on December 21, however I fancy him to return by way of it. The division is alive, losers preventing losers and winners preventing winners. There may be such an incredible mixture of fights.”
Certainly. Even when Fury had been to lose to Usyk once more, there would possible be first rate to huge curiosity in that all-British showdown between Fury and AJ, even when loads of us would in reality desire to see Joshua stroll away now. All of it is dependent upon how Fury seems to be on December 21, whether or not he wins or, if he loses, is aggressive. A devastating defeat for Fury, and he could nicely stroll away.
But when Fury and Joshua had been to struggle subsequent yr, this with Fury not coming off a stoppage loss towards Usyk, there would certainly be one large favorite to win the long-awaited struggle, and that might be Fury, so nasty was Joshua’s KO loss to Dubois.
As for Dubois towards Fury, Warren, who in fact promotes each guys, admits he’d be in a “troublesome place” if this struggle got here to be. However Dubois desires to grow to be undisputed heavyweight champ, so meaning he desires to struggle the Usyk-Fury rematch winner. If Fury does win in December, who does he struggle subsequent – Dubois or Joshua? Attention-grabbing instances for the heavyweight division, to make sure.
