Dubois Won’t Be Able To Stand Up To Joshua’s Power, Says Hearn Eddie Hearn Predicts that Daniel Dubois won’t be able to stand up to Anthony Joshua’s Power on Saturday night if he starts landing right hands like Dubois’ previous opponent, Filip Hrgovic, did last June. Hearn believes that Joshua’s power will be too much for Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs_ to take without getting knocked out. I think this is the first time in a long time that he truly believes in what he’s doing and he believes in the game plan and the tactics,” said Eddie Hearn to Boxing Social, talking about Anthony Joshua. “Ben Davison does a great job of showing the mistakes that you made that individual pay.” Hearn is blowing smoke up Joshua’s backside by saying his trainer Ben Davison has him believing in his game plans.

That’s a long time for any fighter to go between wins over quality opposition, especially for Joshua, who has a large following in the United Kingdom and is well-liked by His Excellency Turki Alsheikh. Will Joshua feel eager to continue his career if he’s knocked out by Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs) and battered by Fury? It would depend on what Joshua’s goals are. If he’s just out for money, he could continue fighting and making good dough well into his 40s. British boxing fans don’t give up on their fighters, as we’ve seen with UK journeyman Dereck Chisora. “Loads,” Joshua said to DAZN Boxing when asked how much time he has left in his career. “It’s not the physical side; I’m strong as an Ox; I’m goo...
