Everything you need to know as Daniel Dubois gets set to make the first defence of his IBF world heavyweight title against Anthony Joshua in a colossal all-British showdown at Wembley Arena on Saturday 21st September.
Daniel Dubois and Anthony Joshua will collide in their hugely-anticipated world title showdown on Saturday 21st September 2024.
As with all big fight cards, the event is scheduled to get underway at around 16:00 (BST), with Daniel Dubois v Anthony Joshua taking top billing at around 22:00 (BST).
Daniel Dubois v Anthony Joshua will take place at Wembley Stadium in London, the home of English football.
A number of other major boxing bouts have taken place at the famed venue, including AJ's blockbuster bout with Wladimir Klitschko in April 2017.
The entire Riyadh Season London fight card, including Daniel Dubois v Anthony Joshua, will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, TNT Sports and live-streaming platform DAZN.
With the event being billed as a PPV, all three platforms will be charging £19.99 to watch the action, which is scheduled to get underway from around 16:30 (BST).
The IBF heavyweight title will be on on the line after Oleksandr Usyk opted to relinquish his title in June, meaning that Daniel Dubois' 'Interim' status was upgraded to full world champion.
The Ukrainian became the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the four-belt era when he beat Tyson Fury to claim the WBC, WBA, WBO and IBF belts in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia last month.
However, his decision to vacate the IBF strap has seen Dubois installed as champion and Anthony Joshua handed the opportunity of becoming a three-time world champion.
