Just seen that the IBF haven’t received a request to sanction a Joshua- Dubois fight, I think Hearn might swerve this fight quite a lot of risk involved.
No problem with him not fighting Dubois if he fights Zhang or rematches the in form Parker. If however, it’s a cherry pick stay busy fight then I’ll raise my eyebrows. Ultimately, Turki will decide who headlines the Wembley card.
Joshua has made a career out of cherry picking soft touches, mainly small and/or old men and he will take the easiest option possible. Only one defeat away from retirement and I think his final ambition is to fight for a vacant belt against a Charles Martin level opponent.
Dubois is made for AJ. I very much doubt AJ would duck Dubois and as we've all seen lately, Turki is pulling the strings, not Hearn and not Warren.
Like @Heisenberg said, let's see. If he doesn't fight Dubois but fights Zhang or Parker then fair enough. If its not them then yeah he 100% doesn't want it with Dubois.
Why would Turki decide who fights at Wembley? Is it becasuse Wembley is the b grade fight and Turki gets the 1st dibs? Just curious because surely Turki only cares about Saudi fights?
I hope everyone keeps same energy when Dubois get Ko'ed. Hopefully, he ain't gonna become a bum like Ngannou all of a sudden.
I don't see any reason Joshua would duck Dubois really.... I reckon he'd take care of him fairly routinely.
Terki decides who AJ fights. The same goes for Fury, Usyk etc. Dubois fight is happening, and will be announced next week.
