Joshua vs Dubois time: When does fight start in UK and US?

Anthony Joshua will challenge Daniel Dubois for the IBF heavyweight title, in an all-British clash at Wembley

Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois will soon square off in an all-British title fight, with the IBF heavyweight belt on the line at Wembley.

Dubois, 26, won the interim title by stopping Filip Hrgovic in June, but he was upgraded to official champion after Oleksandr Usyk vacated the regular belt. Now Dubois defends the gold against Joshua, 34, who is bidding to become a three-time world champion.

“AJ” previously reigned as unified champion twice – with his second reign ended by Usyk in 2022 – and he and Dubois will bring bad blood into Wembley Stadium, after Joshua threatened to “put a chair across” his opponent’s face in June.

The undercard features a number of high-profile names, too, including Joshua Buatsi, Josh Warrington, Liam Smith and Hamzah Sheeraz. That is thanks to Saudi investment, with this event representing the Gulf state’s second boxing card on foreign soil – and first in the UK.
