Dubois wants to reach full potential
The Straits Times

Britain's Daniel Dubois destroyed Anthony Joshua's dream of becoming a three-time heavyweight world champion with a fifth-round knockout to retain his International Boxing Federation (IBF) belt at a packed Wembley Stadium on Sept 21.Britain's Daniel Dubois destroyed Anthony Joshua's dream of becoming a three-time heavyweight world champion with a fifth-round knockout to retain his International Boxing Federation (IBF) belt at a packed Wembley Stadium on Sept 21.

Dubois dropped his compatriot to the canvas in the opening round with a stinging right, the referee delivering a standing eight count, and the 27-year-old proceeded to tear up the pre-fight predictions as swiftly as he ripped into his opponent.
