British boxing promoter, Eddie Hearn has told former heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua to make a quick decision between fighting Daniel Dubios or Tyson Fury in July.
Recall that Joshua had built extraordinary momentum in boxing since his back-to-back loss to Usyk, beating the likes of Jermaine Franklin, Robert Helenius, Otto Wallin, and Francis Ngannou, all by knockout, until Dubois completely dominated him inside five rounds at Wembley Stadium in London, England, on the 21st of September, last year.
However, in a chat with Boxing Scene, Hearn stated that Joshua must have a choice between fighting Dubois or Fury.
“Daniel Dubois, I think, will fight AJ this summer, if we want. And AJ wants to fight Tyson Fury,” said Hearn.
“We know right now since Fury retired that’s not an option. But I just want to throw a few other names into the mix and say, because we’re in March and he’ll probably fight in July, or something like that. So I just want to get the flavor.
“The flavor in Saudi where Joshua was in attendance for Joseph Parker-Martin Bakole as part of the DAZN broadcast team, was, ‘I want Fury. If I can’t get Fury, I’d like Dubois.
“And I think everyone’s dangerous. So why not fight for the world heavyweight title?
