Joshua Shifts Focus, Dubois Rises in Heavyweight Ranks

Joshua shifts focus from Fury, while Dubois rises in heavyweight ranks, setting up exciting matchups ahead.

Anthony Joshua has redirected his career trajectory, moving away from a potential showdown with Tyson Fury. Promoter Eddie Hearn disclosed in an interview with talkSPORT Boxing that Joshua is now targeting a different opponent, although specifics remain undisclosed. This shift signifies a pivotal moment in Joshua`s pursuit of regaining his status in the heavyweight division.

Daniel Dubois has emerged as a prominent figure in the heavyweight landscape, solidifying his position alongside elite fighters like Joshua and Fury. At just 27 years old, Dubois has bounced back impressively from his defeat to Joe Joyce, establishing himself as a formidable contender. Joyce, known as "The Juggernaut," has praised Dubois` power, emphasizing the significant impact he has in the ring.

Looking ahead, Joyce is set to make his return to the ring in 2025, while Dubois is scheduled to face Joseph Parker, promising an exciting clash in the heavyweight division. Tyson Fury has also weighed in on Deontay Wilder`s potential comeback, reflecting on their historic rivalry and the lasting effects of their bouts. Fury`s insights shed light on the dynamics between these two boxing legends, adding depth to the ongoing narrative in heavyweight boxing.

In a surprising revelation, heavyweight legend Larry Holmes admitted to quitting in one of his fights, acknowledging that he recognized he couldn`t handle his opponent at that moment. This candid admission adds a new layer to the understanding of Holmes` illustrious career, which spanned nearly three decades and included numerous memorable bouts.
