Anthony Joshua to fight Daniel Dubois for IBF title vacated by Oleksandr Usyk

Dubois is the IBF’s mandatory challenger and it was announced on Wednesday that he will go up against fellow Briton Joshua after the undisputed world heavyweight champion Usyk confirmed he was giving up the crown.

“Anthony and Daniel, listen. I know the IBF title is important to you. It is my present to you on September 21,” Usyk said in a video posted on social media on Tuesday.
