Tyson Fury has taken an interesting stance following the epic heavyweight battle between Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley.
Dubois recovered from two early knockdowns to stop Wardley in the 11th round and win the WBO heavyweight title, becoming a two-time world champion in the process.
‘DDD’ had previously held the IBF crown, where he notably claimed a fifth round knockout win over Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium back in September 2024.
Posting on social media, Fury has now compared those two fights, believing that the performance from Dubois against Wardley, along with some of his other recent outings, raise question marks about the chin of Joshua after he was dropped several times by ‘DDD.’
“Well, I’ve just been sat here thinking after Dubois’ unbelievable fight last night. Dubois fought Big Baby Miller, stopped him but never put him down.
“Then he fought Hrgovic, stopped him but never put him down. He fought Wardley last night in an unbelievable fight, stopped him and never put him down. He hit Usyk with some big bombs, never put him over. But yet he fights Anthony Joshua and pummels him to the floor five times.
“I’m not saying Anthony Joshua’s chinless, but they’re the facts. Take it as you wish and as you will. Everybody else never went over, not a singular person, Big Baby Miller, Hrgovic, Usyk or Wardley but Joshua goes down five times. Chinny!”
Fury is scheduled to meet Joshua in a long-awaited clash later this year, provided that ‘AJ’ can first overcome Kristian Prenga in July, while ‘The Gypsy King’ also appears set to have a bout in the interim too.
