Joshua vs Dubois LIVE!
Daniel Dubois is celebrating a momentous upset of Anthony Joshua in a colossal all-British heavyweight main event on Saturday night. ‘Dynamite’ produced an incredible performance in front of a record Wembley Stadium crowd of 96,000 people at the historic home of English football, flooring an out-of-sorts Joshua four times en route to an emphatic fifth-round knockout to stun the largest audience in the history of British boxing.
A career-best victory saw Dubois provide the successful first defence of the full IBF title he received after Oleksandr Usyk relinquished the belt earlier in the summer, having initially become interim champion after his defeat of Filip Hrgovic in June. Dubois will now seek to face the winner of the Usyk vs Tyson Fury rematch in Saudi Arabia in December, with serious questions raised again about Joshua’s future at the top of the sport - though promoter Eddie Hearn expects him to exercise a rematch clause.
Liam Gallagher performed before tonight’s main event ahead of the much-anticipated Oasis reunion next year, while an entertaining undercard was headlined by Hamzah Sheeraz blitzing Tyler Denny to win the European middleweight title. Joshua Buatsi outlasted Willy Hutchinson in a thriller, after Anthony Cacace beat a potentially retiring Josh Warrington, a bloodied Josh Kelly overcame late replacement opponent Ishmael Davis and Josh Padley stunned Mark Chamberlain in a huge upset to kick things off.
