Joshua to face Dubois in all-British heavyweight clash
Bout set for June 13 at the O2 Arena in London
Joshua will be defending his WBA, IBF and WBO titles
LONDON, United Kingdom (AFP) — Anthony Joshua will face Daniel Dubois in an all-British heavyweight clash on June 13 at the O2 Arena in London, promoter Matchroom Boxing announced on Tuesday.
Joshua, 32, will be defending his WBA, IBF and WBO titles against the undefeated Dubois, 25.
Dubois has won all 17 of his professional fights, including 16 by knockout.
Joshua will likely start as the favorite when he faces Dubois -- who on Wednesday was elevated from interim to full WBA champion after Trevor Bryan was stripped of the belt for failing to make a mandatory defence.
But Dubois is a dangerous opponent and will be looking to make a big statement against Joshua.
The fight is set to be a sell-out and is sure to be a thrilling encounter between two of the best heavyweight boxers in the world.
In the conclusion, you can leave readers with a lasting impression by highlighting the significance of the fight and its potential for creating history. You might also mention the excitement and anticipation surrounding the event and express your hope that it will be a memorable night for boxing fans.
