Anthony Joshua Advised to Delay Dubois Rematch

Anthony Joshua is advised to postpone his rematch with Daniel Dubois, as injury concerns may delay his return until May, possibly allowing for a long-awaited fight with Tyson Fury if Fury defeats Oleksandr Usyk in their upcoming rematch. Barry Hearn, father of Joshua's promoter, suggests that while Joshua could win a rematch against Dubois, it may be wise to take his time. Meanwhile, Dubois, who recently became the IBF heavyweight champion after defeating Joshua, has multiple options for his next fight, including a potential match with British champion Fabio Wardley. Fury has expressed interest in facing Dubois after his rematch with Usyk but has stated he would not fight for the IBF title. Promoter Frank Warren has indicated that the immediate rematch with Joshua looks unlikely, given Joshua's injury status. Dubois remains open to fighting any contender that makes sense for his title defense.
