Published

on

The stage is set for an epic battle between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois for the IBF heavyweight title at Wembley Stadium on September 21, 2024.

Joshua, a former world champion, is looking to reclaim his title, while Dubois, the current IBF champion, aims to defend his belt and prove himself as a top heavyweight contender.

Joshua, 34, has been working on his technique and strategy with trainer Ben Davison and boxing coach Lee Wylie, developing into an economical, patient, and highly effective boxer-puncher.

He’s accurate and versatile with excellent counterpunching ability, which could give Dubois trouble. On the other hand, Dubois, 27, is known for his devastating punching power, with 20 knockouts in 21 wins.

However, he’s also shown vulnerabilities in his defense, which Joshua could capitalize on.

The odds are in Joshua’s favor, with a -400 betting line, while Dubois is the +300 underdog.

Despite this, Dubois is confident, saying he’s “building up my energy” for the contest and is ready to go to another level.

Joshua, meanwhile, appears relaxed and calm, having headlined numerous high-profile fights before.

*Key Factors to Watch:

– Joshua’s Experience: Will his experience fighting in front of large crowds and against top-level opponents give him an edge?
– Dubois’s Power: Can Dubois’ formidable punching power overcome Joshua’s technical skills?

– Defensive Strategies: How will Dubois address his defensive vulnerabilities, and can Joshua exploit them?

*Prediction:
Experts predict a tactical battle, with Joshua’s technical skills likely to prevail.

Diaspora Digital Media forecasts a late stoppage, with Joshua winning by TKO in the 10th round. However, this is heavyweight boxing, and one punch can change everything.
