According to Tony Bellew, the Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois match will end after two rounds.
The IBF world heavyweight championship bout will take place on September 21
at Wembley Stadium as part of the Riyadh Season Card Program organized by Saudi boxing bosses.
Former WBC cruiserweight world champion Bellew has made a bold prediction.
When asked if Dubois possesses any qualities that could trouble Joshua, Bellew told Lucky Block Casino: “Of course, he can punch.
“But technically, AJ is better than him, more graceful than him, faster than him, and hits harder than him.
“Dubois is good at everything, AJ is a little bit better. And he’s got defense too.
“Dubois is good at pressing with his front foot, strong, has reasonable pace for his physique.
“AJ is a freak. AJ is probably the best the heavyweight division has ever had as an athlete.
“If you put AJ in a 100m race [against other heavyweights], a weightlifting competition, how far he can jump, how high he can jump – I guarantee you he’ll win it all.” chief.
“It’s just about putting all of those into one package.
“As for the AJ vs Dubois fight, I think if that fight happens it will end within two rounds.
“I think he won’t miss him. As long as Joshua continues with the same attitude as when he fought Francis Ngannou, the fight will be over in two rounds.
“I don’t see any other outcome.”
Dubois will enter the fight as champion.
He won the IBF “interim” title after defeating Filip Hrgovic earlier this month and has now been upgraded following Oleksandr Usyk’s departure.
So Joshua will face a challenge to have a chance to become a three-time heavyweight world champion.
