Iegor Golub: "Joshua Mentally Grew from the Fights with Usyk"

Iegor Golub, the trainer of Ukrainian WBO lightweight champion Denys Berinchyk and ambassador for Ready to Fight, shared his exclusive thoughts with RTFight about the upcoming bout between IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois and former unified champion Anthony Joshua.

– How do you evaluate the Joshua vs. Dubois fight? It seems obvious, but can Dubois pull off an upset?

– This is heavyweight boxing. You can win with just one punch. But if I were to make a prediction, I'd say a stoppage win for Anthony in the 8th or 9th round.

I feel that Joshua has grown mentally from his fights with Oleksandr Usyk. He’s become stronger mentally.

The fight is set to take place on September 21 at Wembley Stadium in London. More on this megafight can be found here.
