Otto Wallin has advised Anthony Joshua to avoid an immediate rematch against Daniel Dubois.
Earlier this month, Dubois caused a huge shock when he stopped Joshua in the fifth round to retain his IBF heavyweight crown.
Since the upset result, Joshua has been linked to several fights including showdowns with Tyson Fury, Deontray Wilder, and Dubois.

Wallin, who was beaten by Joshua last December, has had his say on his former rival’s current situation and he believes he needs to forget about Dubois.
“I wouldn’t advise for it. For now, I don’t see a reason for it. The easy answer is to say no, he shouldn’t rematch,” said Wallin when speaking to Boxing News .
“Dubois did a really good job. With Joshua, I felt like he was caught off guard. He never got into the fight. That was Dubois’ night. That he came out and was able to hit Joshua so easy."
