Former UFC champion in two divisions, Irishman Conor McGregor, expressed his desire to see a rematch between British fighters Daniel Dubois and Anthony Joshua.
McGregor said during a broadcast on Duelbits:
I thought Dubois [would win] and I was correct. He was very relaxed. Sometimes you get fed up, you might get a little bit tired or something. Joshua was almost at that stage. Make no mistake, I think what should happen next between Joshua and Dubois is a rematch. That's a live fight between two very evenly matched fighters that have just put on a spectacle for us all in front of 96,000 fans in, on behalf of Riyadh Season and Turki Alalshikh. Do that again. For real, do that again.
For context, on September 22, Dubois defeated Joshua by knockout in the fifth round, successfully defending his IBF heavyweight title.
Prior to this, Joshua had entered the ring in March 2024, knocking out Francis Ngannou in the second round. His record boasts 28 wins (25 by knockout) and four losses. Dubois fought his previous match in June 2024, securing a technical knockout victory over Filip Hrgovic in the eighth round. He has a record of 22 wins (21 by knockout) and two losses.
