Anthony Joshua’s recent loss to Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium was a shocking upset, especially since Joshua was the heavy favorite to win. Dubois dominated Joshua for four rounds and sealed the deal with a fight-ending shot in the fifth round ¹. This loss marked Joshua’s fourth career defeat, sparking rumors about his potential retirement. However, Joshua has made it clear that he’s not hanging up his gloves just yet.
Joshua’s career has been a rollercoaster ride, with notable wins and losses. He previously held the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles from 2014-2016 and the WBA ‘super’, IBF, and WBO titles between 2016-2019 ¹. After back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk, Joshua rebounded with four straight wins, including a knockout victory over Francis Ngannou.
The loss to Dubois may have derailed Joshua’s plans for a British megafight with Tyson Fury, but it’s not the end of the road for him. Joshua’s next move will be crucial in determining his future in the sport.
