Anthony Joshua is hoping to avenge his defeat to Daniel Dubois if he gets past Tyson Fury next month. AJ suffered a crushing fifth-round knockout loss to Dubois in September 2024 in front of a packed-out Wembley Stadium.Joshua already has his next steps mapped out if he beats Fury on December 11GettyJoshua was knocked down four times en route to the eventual stoppage and spent over a year on the sidelines licking his wounds.An immediate rematch was briefly explored, but a proposed February date proved too tight a turnaround for Joshua, who was nursing an elbow injury in the aftermath of the brutal beating.While the ship looked to have sailed, the sequel could be placed back on the table if Joshua can overcome Fury on December 11 at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.That is because the WBA is expected to sanction the Battle of Britain as a ‘super’ world heavyweight title fight, meaning a bout with WBO champion Dubois would be a unification clash, and therefore big business. Anthony Joshua’s next target“I can’t speak on Tyson’s behalf, but for [Joshua], he still wants to be in the biggest fights of the sport,” Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn told BetOnline’s Politely Raw with Pacman Jones.“I’ve got to be honest with you, and I know it’s a very dangerous fight, but he wants to rematch Daniel Dubois.“[Joshua] is a competitor, so he’s looking at that, and anyone who has ever beaten him, he’s rematched, apart from Daniel Dubois.“He wants to have another go at Daniel Dubois, and this is second nature to him.“He wants to avenge that defeat. It’s a dangerous fight, but if he goes through Tyson Fury and stops Tyson Fury, then why not? “That would be for a title unification – or for a fight against [Filip] Hrgovic.”Joshua wants a second crack at Dubois after his brutal knockout loss in September 2024GETTYDubois is expected to return to the ring in February after stopping Fabio Wardley in back-to-back bouts.A fight with the winner of Fury vs Joshua would therefore most likely have to wait until the second half of next year. Dubois has made clear that he isn’t chasing a particular name and just wants to fight ‘anyone with a belt’.“Any of them really,” Dubois told talkSPORT. “Filip Hrgovic, Agit Kabayel, all of the guys with the titles.“I can’t go backwards; I have to keep going forward to bigger and better fights.“We are happy to wait, but in the meantime, just give me a name, and I’ll get ready for it.” Watch Boxing on DAZN*If you click a link in this boxout, we will earn affiliate revenueSign up to DAZN to access the definitive subscription for boxing fans.Upgrade to DAZN Ultimate from just £24.99/month, guaranteeing access to 185+ fights annually, a minimum of 12 pay-per-views at no extra cost, as well as every Lega Serie A match and other elite football access.Alternatively, DAZN Standard is just £15.99/month, with the caveat you will have to pay for pay-per-view events.Click here to sign up.
