Joshua vs Dubois LIVE: Fight start time and undercard results as heavyweights clash at Wembley tonight

Anthony Joshua will box Daniel Dubois in an all-British heavyweight title fight tonight, with a domestic-record crowd expected to fill out Wembley Stadium.

It is believed that 96,000 fans will be present to see Joshua challenge Dubois for the IBF heavyweight title, as “AJ” bids to become a three-time world champion.

The 34-year-old lost the unified belts to Oleksandr Usyk on points in 2021 and failed to regain them in a rematch in 2022, but he has since won four straight fights. That run consisted of a decision victory over Jermaine Franklin plus knockouts of Robert Helenius, Otto Wallin and – most recently – UFC star Francis Ngannou in March.

Meanwhile, Dubois also failed to overcome Usyk, losing to the Ukrainian via stoppage last year, before Usyk became undisputed champion against Tyson Fury in May. Since then, however, Dubois has stopped Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic, with his win over the latter bringing the interim IBF title.

Dubois, 27, was then elevated to regular champion when Usyk vacated the official belt. And tonight’s winner at Wembley could get a shot at redemption against Usyk, if the unbeaten southpaw defeats Fury again in December.
