WILL MENTAL STRENGTH GIVE DUBOIS THE EDGE OVER JOSHUA?
Daniel Dubois, the reigning IBF heavyweight champion, is gearing up for the fight of his career against Anthony Joshua on September 21 at Wembley Stadium. The 26-year-old champ is using meditation and visualization to mentally prepare for the clash, focusing on a clear picture of victory. As the date approaches, Dubois remains locked in, emphasizing the importance of mental strength and sharpness in his training camp. This fight is set to be one of the biggest events of the year, with the winner lining up for a potential bout with either Tyson Fury or Oleksandr Usyk later this year.
Dubois has made it clear that he’s come a long way since his amateur days, including sparring sessions with Joshua. While rumors have swirled that Dubois once knocked Joshua down during training, the IBF champion brushes them off as irrelevant. "I don’t remember those spars, and even if I did, it wouldn’t matter," Dubois said. "I’m here to fight, not spar."
For Dubois, the pressure of performing in front of 90,000 fans at Wembley won’t be a problem. He acknowledges the role of fear in a fighter’s mindset but sees it as something that can be channeled into his performance. "Fear is good and it’s my friend when I’m in the ring," he confidently stated.
Dubois, who holds a 21-2 record with 20 knockouts, is no stranger to big stages. From his fight with Oleksandr Usyk to claiming the WBA regular heavyweight title, he feels prepared to face the former unified heavyweight king in front of his home crowd. "This fight sells itself, based on me and AJ and what we both bring to the table."
With both fighters eager for victory, the clash at Wembley will undoubtedly be an electrifying spectacle.
