Daniel Dubois: I’ll fight Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk, whoever pays me most

Daniel Dubois would “love a rematch” with either Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk – depending on which fighter “pays me the most”.

Dubois retained his IBF world heavyweight title with a demolition of British rival Joshua at Wembley on Saturday night, flooring the two-time former world champion four times.

Joshua released a video on social media on Monday insisting his own journey in boxing is not over yet, with a potential rematch against Dubois as well as another all-British clash with Tyson Fury possible options in the future.

Dubois’ promoter Frank Warren maintains while there is no specific clause in his fighter’s contract for a swift rematch with Joshua, they could go toe to toe again if the right deal was agreed.

Usyk is set to face Fury in their own rematch on December 21 for the WBA, WBO and WBC belts.

Dubois was beaten by Usyk in August 2023, but not before the Ukrainian was sent to the canvas by Dubois in the fifth round – only for the punch to be ruled a low blow and the champion given extra time to recover.

The 27-year-old Londoner feels whichever fighter he next gets into the ring with, the purse will have to be right for him financially.

Speaking about the possibility of facing Joshua again, Dubois said: “Yeah, if that happens down the line then yes. If that happens next then yeah. I want to go for it.

“I want to do it even better next time. I know where I need to improve as well, so as a champion and as a fighter I just want to prove people wrong every time and that is what we have been doing.

“I think I would be a lot better than that (last fight). It was a great show, a Rocky-type fight, but next time I believe I will be more clinical, more sharp, everything better.”
