Anthony Joshua has seemingly sent a chilling warning in Daniel Dubois’ direction as the Brits prepare for a Wembley showdown.
Dubois won the AJ sweepstakes and the interim IBF heavyweight title last weekend with a stunning eighth-round TKO victory over the previously undefeated Filip Hrgovic in Saudi Arabia.
