Dillian Whyte believes Daniel Dubois has to take Anthony Joshua into the latter stages of their world title fight for his best chance of success.
The pair clash this weekend, live on DAZN, with the contest set to take place in front of a record-breaking crowd inside Wembley Stadium.
Whyte, perhaps the fighter who knows Joshua best, was able to hurt his great rival when they met in a huge domestic grudge match that was by Joshua in 2016.
The pair were supposed to meet again last summer before issues arose with Whyte’s pre-fight drug test, and the former world title challenger has delivered his verdict on this weekend’s fight.
“Early doors I think it's very, very dangerous for Dubois,” said Whyte when previewing the action on Talksport.
"But if he gets past three or four rounds, then it could become very dangerous for AJ, like we saw in the Andy Ruiz fight - he dropped him and then fell apart after.
"We know he doesn't deal well with pressure late in fights, so I think it's a genuine 50/50 fight."
