Anthony Joshua fights Daniel Dubois for his IBF heavyweight title in the main event at a sold out Wembley Stadium on PPV tonight. The event will be staged and shown in front of 96,000 fans live on DAZN PPV.
Joshua takes his first fight against a high caliber fighter in two years since his second loss to Oleksandr Usyk. It is unknown if two-time heavyweight champion Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) is mentally and physically ready for a young talent like Dubois. It’s make-or-break for Joshua, who needs the win to show he still has something left.
We’ll be showing live updates and results from tonight’s action below.

The undercard is more skewed towards British fans as the American public is not too familiar with either name. So many Americans will buy the opportunity on PPV to see the Joshua-Dubois fight and not have much interest in the other fights.
Ideally, the organizers should have put in one or two quality fights involving American or Mexican fighters to balance the card rather than having it 100% skewed to British fans.
