Daniel Dubois is back in the UK after the biggest win of his career.

Dubois pulled off one of the best performances of the year when he knocked out Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium to retain his IBF heavyweight title.

‘DDD’ dominated the action and dropped Joshua multiple times throughout the fight, before getting the finish in the fifth round of their battle.

Dubois headed to Brazil after his victory to celebrate, but recently touched down back in England as talks continue over who may be his next opponent.

A rematch with Joshua could be an option, with February suggested as a possible date, and Dubois has told Podlounge UK that no matter who it is, he only wants to take on the best in the division.

“I’m looking forward to getting the news on the next date and the next fight. Whoever wants it in the division can get it. I’m ready.

“There is talk of a rematch and if they want it that’ll be next. Whoever comes up next will be a top quality contender. I’m not going backwards, I’m going forwards, I want to fight the best and beat the best.”

If not Joshua next, Dubois may look to take on the winner of the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, which takes place on December 21.

‘DDD’ fought Usyk back in August 2023, with the fight having a controversial moment where the Ukrainian appeared to be dropped with a body shot, before it was then ruled a low blow.

Usyk went on to win the fight by stoppage, but Dubois has vowed to ‘end’ his rival if they meet again.

Daniel Dubois has sent Anthony Joshua a stark message claiming his opponent would have “demons on his mind” in the build-up to any potential rematch.

Last month, the pair fought at Wembley Stadium, and despite Joshua entering as the heavy favourite, he found himself struggling from the first round. Dubois dropped him four times en route to a triumphant fifth-round knockout, successfully defending his IBF title.

Many boxing pundits have said Joshua should retire after the defeat. However, he believes there will be another chance to become a three-time world heavyweight champion, even after falling to a fourth career defeat.

Frank Warren, Dubois’ promoter, wants ‘Dynamite’ to return to the ring early next year and has indicated an openness to a second showdown with Joshua, with the potential to headline the scheduled February 22 fight night in Riyadh.

Ahead of this, Dubois believes Joshua will be facing inner turmoil. The IBF champion told BoxNation: “He’ll have a lot of demons playing on his mind.

“Who knows if people are talking him into it? I don’t know. I know from my side I’m ready to go out there and show the world that I’m the king.”

Some suggest that ‘Triple D’ should take on the victor of the Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury rematch later this year, but a rematch with AJ seems to be a more likely scenario. However, Dubois has openly stated that he has unfinished business with the Ukrainian champion.

Last year, ‘Dynamite’ and him met in the ring, with the British fighter knocking Usyk down with a body shot that the referee controversially deemed a low blow. Usyk ultimately secured a knockout victory in the ninth round.

“That’s unfinished business,” Dubois said. “I want to get that one right. I want to do it properly and finish him. It will be a good fight, a unification fight, that’s massive.”

Daniel Dubois has had his say on a potential rematch with Anthony Joshua.

Dubois retained his IBF heavyweight title with a stunning fifth round knockout win against Joshua at Wembley Stadium in September.

Attention immediately turned to whether an immediate rematch could be next, with February touted as an option if it was to go ahead.

Dubois has now shared his thoughts on taking on ‘AJ’ again, telling BoxNation that he feels his heavyweight rival will have demons on his mind.

“He’ll have a lot of demons playing on his mind. Who knows if people are talking him into it, I don’t know. I know from my side I’m ready to go out there and show the world that I’m the king.”

If not Joshua for Dubois next, the 27-year-old is keen to try and avenge his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, if Usyk is able to beat Tyson Fury in their rematch in December.

“That’s unfinished business. I want to get that one right. I want to do it properly and finish him. It will be a good fight, a unification fight, that’s massive.”

Dubois fought Usyk in August 2023, and did send the Ukrainian to the canvas with what he thought was a body shot, but it was ruled a low blow, and Usyk went on to win by ninth round stoppage.

As for Joshua, he’ll be looking to get his career back on track and become world champion again if he takes on Dubois next, and ‘AJ’ has recently named the heavyweight who he says he ‘ruined with one punch.’
