Anthony Joshua had a tough night at the ring this past weekend when he faced Daniel Dubois in front of a record-breaking crowd of 96,000 at Wembley Stadium. Dubois, a 27-year-old who was considered an underdog, pulled off a stunning upset and knocked out Joshua in just five rounds. The defeat has left many questioning Joshua's future in the sport and some have even suggested that he should retire.
However, one person who is not ready to write off Joshua just yet is fellow boxer Tyson Fury, who was ringside for the fight. Fury believes that Dubois deserves credit for his performance and that Joshua should not be faulted for losing to him. "He did a very good job and fair play to young Dan," Fury said, acknowledging Dubois' skills and determination.
Fury also reminded everyone that in heavyweight boxing, anything can happen and one punch can change the course of a fight. He even admitted that it could have been him or anyone else in that ring on the receiving end of a knockout. "It's heavyweight boxing, it happens," he said. "You get knocked spark out, it could've been me, could've been you, could've been anybody."
When asked about Joshua's chances of making a comeback, Fury stated that it ultimately depends on Joshua's own ambitions and desires. As for himself, Fury has his own plans set for his next fight against Usyk in December. But he is confident that he will eventually reclaim all the belts he lost, including the IBF title. And he even joked about taking the title from Dubois as well, showing that he has no hard feelings towards the young fighter who defeated one of his colleagues.
