Daniel Dubois has told talkSPORT that he will welcome a rematch with Anthony Joshua.

‘Triple D’ retained his IBF heavyweight crown with a destructive display as he knocked out AJ on Saturday night at Wembley Stadium.

The 27-year-old dropped AJ four times en route to a shock fifth-round knockout win that has shaken up the glamour division.

In the immediate aftermath, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn insisted there was a rematch clause and that his client was likely to activate it after the crushing defeat.

However, Queensberry Promotions chief Frank Warren has told talkSPORT that there is no such clause in Dubois‘ paperwork, although they will entertain a second fight if both parties want to do it.

He said: “He doesn’t have a rematch in his contract. But there is one in AJ’s contract.

“I haven’t got a problem with a rematch if they want to do it and the terms are all okay. But it is too soon.

“He needs to savour the moment, he has shown what he is all about now fighting four world-ranked fighters this year.”

Dubois has now spoken to talkSPORT’s Jim White and discussed the possibility of a second fight.

Asked if he wants to run it back with Joshua, Dubois told White and Jordan: “Yeah, if that happens down the line then yes.

“If that happens next then yeah. I want to go for it.

“I want to do even better next time. I know where I need to improve as well, so as a champion and a fighter I want to prove people wrong every time and that’s what we have been doing…

Dubois’ fight with Usyk was marred by controversy over a low blowDAZN

“I think I would, I can do a lot better than that. It was a great showing but next time I believe I’ll be more clinical. More sharp, everything.”

The Joshua fight isn’t the only big payday on the table for Dubois though.

Before the all-British bout, there were suggestions that whoever emerged victorious would box the winner of the Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury rematch on December 21.

If this comes to fruition then it would mark the second undisputed heavyweight clash of the four-belt era, with Usyk and Fury duking it out for the WBA, WBO and WBC straps.

Quizzed on whether he would rather rematch AJ or fight the Usyk vs Fury winner, Dubois said: “I would love a rematch but either one really, whoever pays me more money.”

Dubois has never fought Fury but was defeated by Usyk back in August 2023.

In the fifth round, Dubois sent Usyk tumbling to the canvas, but it was ruled a low blow by the referee, and the Ukrainian was given five minutes to recover.

The boxing world was divided by the shot with some suggesting it was a legal punch, while others insisted it had strayed low.

Four rounds later, Usyk forced Dubois to take a knee, from which he didn’t recover.

 “I didn’t think that was a low blow,” Dubois said in his post-fight interview.

“I thought that landed, and I’ve been cheated out of victory tonight.”
