Anthony Joshua’s administration requested IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois’ promoters at Queensberry at this time why Dubois hadn’t signed up for VADA testing for his or her September twenty first conflict at Wembley Stadium in London.
If this can be a transfer to attempt to get into Dubois’s thoughts to throw him off his sport and distract him on September twenty first, it’s not more likely to work. Dubois will likely be coming into the ring with one factor in thoughts: to knock Joshua into the subsequent galaxy 2.5 million gentle years away.
This means to some that Joshua’s persons are beginning to fear about what may occur to AJ in opposition to the younger gun, Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs) is the most important puncher he’s confronted since his struggle in opposition to Wladimir Klitschko on April 29, 2017.
Joshua was fairly fortunate to outlive that struggle with out getting knocked out as a result of, by all rights, he ought to have been if Wladimir had poured it on after knocking him down within the sixth. If Dubois will get Joshua harm, he received’t select to try to field his method to a choice the best way Wladimir foolishly did.
Dubois, 26, feels that the 34-year-old Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) has had his day, and now it’s time for the younger lion to take over the division because the rightful King. Joshua is the primary of two that Dubois needs. After Joshua, he needs to complete off Tyson Fury and ship him out to pasture.
“Coming by means of the adversity he got here by means of in his final two fights in all probability offers him extra of an opportunity,” stated boxing knowledgeable Carl Frampton to BoxNation, speaking about Daniel Dubois in his struggle in opposition to Anthony Joshua on September twenty first.
“I definitely suppose AJ is the favourite. They’re heavyweights, and Dubois is courageous. What I can assure is somebody will get knocked out, and somebody will get knocked out within the first six rounds. I must favor AJ, however it wouldn’t shock me if Dubois does it.
“They’re large athletic males, and something can occur,” stated Frampton on the Joshua vs. Dubois conflict.
