Anthony Joshua believes that Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs) can make a splash on August 26 and defeat the favorite Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) in the fight for the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts.

“I give Dubois a chance to win. Usyk can be hit, and if you hit him right, you can knock him out,” AJ said in an interview with IFL TV.

“Remember this is heavyweight, not heavyweight, not light heavyweight. They hit really hard here. That's why I'm giving Dubois a puncher's chance," AJ said. - Usyk is an elite, he is on a different level, but this fight is an opportunity for Dubois to rise to this level. Don't forget about it."
