Coach Advises Joshua to Skip Confidence-Building Bouts
Anthony Joshua has been encouraged by trainer Shane McGuigan to go straight into a rematch with Daniel Dubois following his knockout defeat. McGuigan, who predicted Joshua's loss, believes facing Dubois again is the best course of action.
Revisiting the Fight
Dubois secured a victory over Joshua with a fifth-round knockout, stunning the crowd of 98,000 at Wembley. Joshua's coach, Ben Davison, faced criticism for his tactical advice during the match.
McGuigan's Insight
McGuigan criticized the strategy employed by Joshua's camp, highlighting the dangers of not rematching Dubois immediately. He emphasized the need for Joshua to understand the risks of world-class boxing.
Joshua's Next Move
Despite the defeat, Joshua has shown no signs of retirement and is already in talks for his boxing comeback. A rematch with Dubois seems likely, especially with the approval from Saudi Arabia’s boxing authority.
