Johnny Nelson Expects Knockout in Joshua vs. Dubois Fight

Former world champion and popular boxing expert Johnny Nelson gave an exclusive prediction to Ready to Fight on the upcoming bout between former world champion Anthony Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) and IBF heavyweight titleholder Daniel Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs).

– Johnny, AJ vs. Dubois, Saturday night, an epic fight with 96,000 fans at Wembley. How do you see it playing out?

– I believe Anthony Joshua will crush Daniel Dubois, but he’ll have to go through a tough battle to land those punches. Daniel Dubois, even during the press conference, said, “I’ll do everything I can to win.” He knows he’ll need to get in close and be aggressive, but I don’t see this fight going beyond the halfway mark. It’s going to be tough for both fighters, but I expect Anthony Joshua to win by knockout.

The fight will take place on September 21 at Wembley Stadium in London, UK. You can find detailed analysis of the matchup here.
