Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois: What are the standout bouts and greatest hits?Mark Robinson/Matchroom Boxing
Ahead of their fight this week, remember some of the biggest wins the two heavyweights have delivered in recent years.

Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois will meet this weekend when the pair go toe-to-toe in the ring at Wembley Stadium in London.

The former will bid to become a three-time world champion as he seeks to dethrone the latter in the first defence of his IBF heavyweight title.

Both men last lost to Oleksandr Usyk and have bounced back to winning ways since, but just how have those results brought them to cross paths?

Here's all you need to know about the stories behind Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois.

What are Anthony Joshua's best performances?

  • Nationality: British
  • Date of birth: October 15, 1989       
  • Height: 6' 6" 
  • Reach: 82" 
  • Total fights: 31 
  • Record: 28-3 (25 KOs) 

Vs. Wladimir Klitschko (11 (12) KO, Wembley Stadium, London, April 2017)

Joshua was already the IBF heavyweight title holder when he was presented with the chance to fight for the WBA (Super) and IBO heavyweight titles vacated by Tyson Fury.

Before him was the legendary Ukrainian fighter the latter had downed - but in front of a raucous crowd, Joshua landed an eleventh-round KO to become unified world champion

Vs. Alexander Povetkin (7 (12) KO, Wembley Stadium, September 2018)

Victories over Carlos Takam and Joseph Parker saw Joshua add the WBO heavyweight title to his collection before presented with another former Olympic Gold Medal winner.

Povetkin had lost just once in his career before, but had never been stopped. That changed when Joshua floored him in the seventh, to score another massive TKO victory.

Vs. Andy Ruiz Jr. (12 UD, Diriyah Arena, December 2019)

A shock loss straight after his win over Povetkin left Joshua reeling from his first defeat, but he would return from America determined to reclaim his crown.

Ruiz Jr. may not have been the most testing opponent on paper, but the Briton delivered an intelligent display to claw back his unified crown with a victory by unanimous decision.

What are Daniel Dubois' best performances?

  • Nationality: British
  • Date of birth: September 6, 1997
  • Height:  6'5"
  • Reach: 78" 
  • Total fights: 23
  • Record: 21-2 (20 KOs) 

Vs. Trevor Bryan (4 (12) KO, Casino Miami, June 2022)

Between Joshua's two losses to Usyk, the Briton cemented his place in the heavyweight division, moving from rising contender to outright champion against the American.

Away from home, Dubois delivered a fourth-round knockout to dethrone the WBA (regular) belt holder and become a world champion in the process.

Vs. Jarrell Miller (10 (12) KO, Kingdom Arena, April 2017)

Defeat to Usyk saw Dubois lose his belt, but in his first bout back after a KO loss to the Ukrainian, he was in the mood to deliver a response.

Against Miller, a man once touted for a bout with Joshua before the pandemic, he delivered a knockout performance to re-establish himself as a contender.

Vs. Filip Hrgović (8 (12) KO, Kingdom Arena, June 2022)

The biggest scalp and best performance of his career so far, Dubois took on the Croatian in June and landed a superb eighth-round stoppage to triumph.

Two years after he first became world champion, the Briton paved the way for the IBF heavyweight belt vacated by Usyk with a showstopper of a bout.
