Eddie Hearn is convinced that his charge Anthony Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) will be the more accurate sniper on September 21 at Wembley Stadium, and it is he who will defeat Daniel Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs) and take the IBF heavyweight belt away from him.
Two Brits are considered the greatest punchers in the king's category at the moment. It is usually said that in the heavyweight division, one punch can change everything. In this fight, that describes the odds of the opponents extremely accurately. The challenger remains the bookies' favorite, but no one is ruling out the chances of the champion eight years younger.
"They are both very dangerous and will unleash their power in the ring with hard punches. It will be a shootout but AJ will be the better sniper in it. He hits more accurately and when he hits, everyone is in trouble. It's a very dangerous fight for both of them, but I'm sure Joshua will win," said the head of Matchroom Boxing.
If AJ does win, he will join the elite of this weight class and become only the sixth fighter in boxing history to become the heavyweight champion of the world for the third time.
