Joshua Engages in Negotiations for September Showdown Against Dubois.

In the world of heavyweight boxing, anticipation is building as Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois engage in discussions for a potential clash in September. 

This matchup between two British powerhouses has fans on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting confirmation of what promises to be a thrilling showdown.

Joshua, known for his explosive combinations and impressive technical skills, is no stranger to the spotlight. With a string of impressive victories and a solid track record, he stands as one of the top contenders in the heavyweight division. 

On the other side, Dubois brings his own formidable arsenal to the ring, with devastating knockout power and a hunger to prove himself against the best in the business.

Joshua, aged 34, is getting ready to fight at Wembley Stadium on September 21st. He was at ringside last Saturday in Saudi Arabia to witness Dubois' victory over Filip Hrgovic.

Frank Warren, Dubois' promoter, has confirmed that talks for the fight are in progress. Dubois, who is 26, defeated Hrgovic in their IBF 'interim' title match, positioning himself as a potential mandatory challenger for Oleksandr Usyk.

Usyk, the Ukrainian champion, has asked not to be stripped of his IBF belt, which would keep the undisputed title on the line for his rematch with Tyson Fury in December. 

If the IBF decides otherwise and strips Usyk, Dubois could become a world champion, setting the stage for a title fight with Joshua.

Joshua has been on a winning streak with four consecutive victories and is already a two-time unified world champion. 

Despite losing his titles to Usyk in back-to-back matches, Joshua has shown resilience and skill in his comeback, winning three of his four fights by stoppage.

Similarly, Dubois has been making a comeback with two wins since his unsuccessful attempt to dethrone Usyk in August 2023. These developments are creating excitement among boxing fans as they eagerly anticipate a potential showdown between Joshua and Dubois for a world title.
