Daniel Dubois is preparing to defend his IBF heavyweight title against Anthony Joshua in a highly anticipated match at Wembley Stadium on Saturday. This will be Dubois' first defense of the title, which he was awarded in June 2023 after Oleksandr Usyk vacated the belt. The fight will be held in front of 96,000 fans, marking one of the biggest crowds in British boxing history.

Dubois, known as "Dynamite," is determined to solidify his position as a world champion by defeating Joshua, a former two-time heavyweight champion. Despite widespread anticipation for a potential future clash between Joshua and Tyson Fury, Dubois remains focused on his own path. He has overcome setbacks in his career, including a loss to Joe Joyce in 2020 due to an eye injury, and has since secured four consecutive victories.

Both Dubois and Joshua have significant histories at Wembley, with Joshua famously defeating Wladimir Klitschko at the stadium in 2017. Dubois, aiming to build on his momentum, is also looking toward future challenges, including a possible rematch with Usyk.
