Daniel Dubois Jokes About Anthony Joshua's Special Treatment
During an interview with talkSPORT following his sensational victory over Anthony Joshua, Daniel Dubois roasted his opponent for getting preferential treatment at Wembley Stadium (via Michael Benson).
“It's not right is it really for the champ to come out first? I think we had a great ring walk. I was just soaking it up. We lit up the place. I was all business from the from the moment I left the dressing room. Once I was in that ring, it was no looking back now, it's on. I didn't really [watch AJ's ring walk]. I heard it. It was sort of quiet, kind of lame. We definitely won the first battle in the ring walks.”
Despite initial claims from Matchroom Boxing's Eddie Hearn, there is no rematch clause following Dubois vs. Joshua. With that said, Turki Al-Sheikh, Chairman of the General Entertainment Authority for Saudi Arabia, has expressed interest in booking the rematch.
