Anthony Joshua was Suspended from Boxing after Daniel Dubois Delivered a vicious knockout
A boxing ban has been imposed on Anthony Joshua in the wake of his horrific loss to Daniel Dubois last week. The 27-year-old domestic competitor knocked out the British-Nigerian boxer this month at Wembley in front of 96,000 spectators in the fifth round. Dubois defeated his opponent four times in a stunning victory to maintain his IBF heavyweight title. The British Boxing Board of Control is enforcing the protocol, which states that Joshua cannot return to the ring for 28 daysDubois defeated his opponent four times in a stunning victory to maintain his IBF heavyweight title. The British Boxing Board of Control is enforcing the protocol, which states that Joshua cannot return to the ring for 28 days. The Organisation of Boxing The committees and Combative Sports emphasises that medical suspensions are routinely given to competitors who lose by knockout or technical knockout. Joshua has stated he will continue to box, thus it is unlikely that the brief suspension will stop him from doing so. His next opponent has not yet been announced. The two-time champion stated, "And you're probably asking, "Do I want to continue fighting?" after losing to Dubois. Naturally, I want to keep battling. That's the reason I mentioned that we tried our best to succeed yet failed. And what does that currently mean?Are we going to run away? Will we survive to battle one more day? And I am that, too. A fighter. Furthermore endorsing Dubois, Joshua declared, "We have to give credit to my opponent Daniel." "When I sign up for fights, I don't really think highly of my opponents anymore, but after it's over, I give him and his team credit." When Eddie Hearn was being interviewed in the ring on Saturday night, he first claimed that Joshua had a rematch clause to fight Dubois once more. He has now clarified, though, that there is no release clause and that Joshua only has one more fight left on his contract during "Riyadh Season," which may be against Dubois. The Matchroom CEO said in an interview with iFLTV that Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder, and a rematch with Dubois are all on the table.
