Anthony Joshua's recent defeat to Daniel Dubois has left him at a career crossroads, having been knocked out in the fifth round and dropped four times during the match. Promoter Eddie Hearn advised Joshua to wait until after Tyson Fury's rematch with Oleksandr Usyk on December 21 before deciding his next move, as Fury's victory could open a path for a high-stakes fight with Joshua. Dubois, who has expressed interest in rematches with both Joshua and Usyk, emphasized that financial considerations will dictate his next fight. Meanwhile, Joshua remains resolute about continuing his boxing career, dismissing calls for retirement, stating he is a 'fighter for life'. As the heavyweight division experiences a significant shift, Dubois has solidified his status while Joshua's future remains uncertain amid rising competition. The landscape of heavyweight boxing continues to evolve, with Usyk's upcoming title defense further influencing potential matchups.
