**London, England -** Dillian Whyte, the former WBC interim champion, believes Saturday’s DAZN PPV heavyweight clash between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois is a “50-50 fight.” Despite Joshua being favored by oddsmakers, Whyte argues that Dubois has a real chance of upsetting the former champion.
While Whyte acknowledges Joshua’s early advantage, he predicts the fight will turn in Dubois’ favor after the fourth round. He cites Joshua’s struggles handling pressure late in fights, evidenced by his defeat to Andy Ruiz Jr.
Whyte further highlights Dubois’ ability to remain focused despite crowd pressure, referencing his recent performances against Filip Hrgovic, Jarrell Miller, and Oleksandr Usyk. “He feeds off the energy from the fans,” Whyte explained, “and it doesn’t matter when they’re cheering for his opponents. It works in his favor.”
Dubois’ unwavering adherence to his corner’s strategy, according to Whyte, adds to his threat. “One thing Daniel does well is that I’ve noticed when you tell him, ‘We’re doing to do this. This is what’s happening. Then he can be very dangerous,” Whyte concluded.
The fight, which is expected to draw a crowd of 96,000 to Wembley Stadium, promises to be a thrilling encounter with both fighters possessing the knockout power to end the fight early.
