Anthony Joshua will win the IBF heavyweight title and become a three-time world champion with a round six TKO victory over Daniel Dubois.

That’s according to the AI Supercomputer at Sportscasting, which has predicted the outcome of the major boxing heavyweight clash at Wembley Stadium on September 21st.

The two British stars will go head-to-head in the ring in front of a live audience for the first time, but this will not be their first time throwing punches at one another – after training with each other for several years.

For Joshua, this fight is make or break, as a win over Daniel Dubois and re-claiming the IBF title will set up future bouts with either Tyson Fury or Oleksandr Usyk.

Beating Otto Wallin and Francis Ngannou in devastating fashion has put AJ on a strong path to reaching the top once again – but a defeat on Saturday night could derail this massively.

In similar fashion, Daniel Dubois could reach a new stratosphere with a win on September 21st, as a victory over Anthony Joshua will cement his place among the heavyweight elite’s.

Dubois is coming off impressive TKO victories against Filip Hrgovic and Jarrell Miller, which were much needed following a defeat to Usyk.

Many have found the Joshua vs Dubois match-up hard to predict, so we asked AI to give us it’s round-by-round prediction for the huge heavyweight fight.
