Daniel Dubois wants rematch with Anthony Joshua despite upcoming fight

Heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois is set to face Joseph Parker on February 22, 2025, in Riyadh. Despite focusing on defending his title, Dubois has expressed his desire for a rematch with Anthony Joshua.

Dubois Reflects on First Joshua Fight

In their previous fight on September 21, 2024, Dubois shocked many by defeating Joshua. He knocked Joshua down four times before a stunning fifth-round knockout secured the victory and kept his IBF title.

“I know fans want to see it again, and I’m ready when the time comes,” Dubois said, expressing hope for a future rematch.

Upcoming Challenges

Before any talk of a rematch, Dubois will face Joseph Parker, a former world champion and one of Joshua’s past opponents. The fight will be part of a major event featuring Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol’s rematch as the main event.

Joshua, meanwhile, is recovering from minor injuries, delaying plans for any potential rematch.

Future Possibilities

If Tyson Fury wins his rematch against Oleksandr Usyk on December 21, 2024, it could lead to a mega-fight with Anthony Joshua in 2025. However, Dubois remains focused on his next bout while keeping the door open for another showdown with Joshua in the future.

“It’s all about timing,” Dubois added. “I’ll be ready when the opportunity comes
