Former undisputed heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis shared his thoughts on the upcoming IBF heavyweight title fight between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois. The match will headline a boxing event taking place on September 21 in London.
Lewis commented, as reported by talkSPORT:
It all starts with the jab. If you go out there and hit a guy with the jab, you know what the guy's gonna do, he's gonna protect against it. That's when you start throwing the right hand. Now he has to protect against that. Then, if he's protecting against both, then that's where the hooks and uppercuts come in. Start with the jab. Keep your head moving. Don’t get hit by jabs and go out there and box your fight.
Dubois last stepped into the ring in June 2024, winning against Filip Hrgovic by technical knockout in the eighth round. His record stands at 21 wins (20 by knockout) and 2 losses.
Joshua fought last in March 2024, securing a knockout victory against Francis Ngannou in the second round. He boasts a record of 28 wins (25 by knockout) and 3 losses.
