4 hours ago 1

Tyson Fury has offered his thoughts on Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois.

Fury will sit in the front row to watch two of his heavyweight rivals battle it out for the IBF title at Wembley Stadium on Saturday night.

Joshua is challenging his fellow Brit for the belt just months after ‘The Gypsy King’ failed to get his hands on it during his historic undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk.

The former two-time heavyweight champion missed out on the chance to become the first man to hold all four major heavyweight titles at the same time.

A second fight with Usyk will take place at the end of the year, but Ukrainian was forced to relinquish the IBF title to facilitate a rematch, meaning the strap was passed to Dubois, who was the ‘interim’ belt holder.

Fury is struggling to pick a winner in the fight between Joshua and ‘DDD’.

Despite that, he predicts they will deliver a great fight for the record-breaking 96,000-strong crowd that will pack into England’s national stadium.

“It’s heavyweight boxing, anybody can beat anybody, as we’ve seen in the past,” Fury told The Stomping Ground.

“Who is gonna win? I don’t know. I don’t know anything about boxing, obviously. Every time I say a prediction I get it wrong anyway.

“I predict it will be a good fight. It looks like someone might get knocked out.

“They are both big old punchers, ain’t they?

“You wouldn’t want to get punched in the face or in the b******s by any of them.”

Fury has been keeping a low profile since suffering his first loss.

The 36-year-old started well against Usyk before being wobbled and dropped during a split-decision defeat that really should’ve been scored unanimously against him

Unlike Fury, Usyk didn’t sit on the fence when asked about Joshua vs Dubois.

He told Boxing King Media: “My favourite is Anthony Joshua but I am very bad at predictions. But I will predict Anthony Joshua.”

Usyk added to Boxing News: “I treat Daniel Dubois with respect. I wish him good luck and let him become the champion someday – that he trains well.

“There is no way to compare [Dubois and Joshua] because they are completely different fighters. Different skills; different styles. Totally different boxers.

“To be fair, I don’t think [Dubois can reach Joshua’s level].

“I am sorry for saying this, but this is the truth and I’m telling it.”
