Despite being the World IBF Heavyweight champion, 'Dynamite' was a considerable betting underdog against 'AJ', but this was evidently wrong as soon as the heavyweight giants collided in round one.

Dubois doubled up his piston jab to plague Joshua against the ropes, landing heavily with his rear hand and jarring the former unified champ. Dubois mauled Joshua across all five rounds, knocking him down several times. Joshua would claw his way back into the fight in round five.

Taunting Dubois and pushing the pace, Joshua appeared to rock Dubois with a thudding right hand, and proceeded to chase him to the ropes. Dubois played matador by winging a huge overhand right which caught Joshua on the jawline, completely flattening him.

Promoter Eddie Hearn explained that Joshua has the right to exercise a rematch clause, but Dubois emphasised that "anyone can get it," though, the most fan-pleasing matchup is a fight with the winner of Usyk vs. Fury 2 in December this year.
