Hearn has praised one fighter.

Eddie Hearn is fine with Anthony Joshua meeting Daniel Dubois head on when the pair clash later this year.  

Dubois will be putting his recently acquired IBF title on the line at Wembley Stadium on September 21 and fans are expecting an entertaining clash due to the power possessed by both fighters. 

Each man is heading into this battle full of confidence, and the pair had to be separated when trying to conduct a sit-down interview last month to publicise their bout.  

Victory for AJ will see him become heavyweight champion for a third time, and Hearn is confident that his man has the weapons to claim victory. 

“People keep saying that this fight is a shootout. AJ, top sniper," said Hearn when speaking to IFLTV in London. 

“You don’t want a shootout with AJ because he’s too sharp and too accurate, but Dubois is very heavy-handed.”
