By Johnny Fisher, a sparring partner of Daniel Dubois, has forecasted an intense showdown between Dubois and Anthony Joshua, predicting that their upcoming fight for the IBF heavyweight world title won’t last the distance. The bout is scheduled to take place at Wembley Stadium and will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Box Office on September 21.
Fisher, who holds the Southern Area champion title and has extensive sparring experience with Dubois, anticipates a knockout, with Dubois expected to aggressively challenge Joshua. Fisher describes Dubois as the most powerful puncher he’s faced, emphasizing the need for Joshua to be cautious yet not overly defensive, as Dubois is susceptible to counterattacks, particularly Joshua’s potent right hand.
While Fisher leans towards Joshua as the potential victor due to his strategic approach and experience, he acknowledges that a solid hit from Dubois could trigger memories of Joshua’s defeat to Andy Ruiz. Fisher himself is preparing for a fiery match against Alen Babic and aspires to contend for the British title against either Fabio Wardley or Frazer Clarke.
The heavyweight division remains thrilling, with Clarke and Wardley having battled to a draw in a memorable British heavyweight title fight, and a rematch is currently under discussion. Dubois is confident in his ability to triumph over Joshua and seize greatness in their highly anticipated September clash. Dubois’s confidence and Fisher’s insights add to the anticipation of what promises to be a riveting event in the boxing world.
