Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois headline what promises to be an explosive night of boxing at Wembley Stadium this evening.

Both heavyweight fighters enter the world-title showdown on the back of statement victories, with Joshua demolishing Francis Ngannou in March and Dubois knocking out Filip Hrgovic earlier this summer.

Two-time unified champion Joshua, 34, is the heavier of the two Britons, tipping the scales at 18st during Friday’s weigh-in at Trafalgar Square in London.

Dubois, 27, meanwhile, has bulked up significantly for the contest and is the heaviest weight of his career at 17st 10lb as he looks to defend his IBF heavyweight title in the capital.

‘I look at myself as a gladiator and I’m going to step into the arena tomorrow to perform for the people,’ Joshua, who has been beaten just three times in his career, said ahead of the bout.

‘I started late in boxing but it shows you can achieve anything.

‘I’m not a warrior in the garden yet, I’m still on the battlefield.’

Dubois, boasting a record of 21-2, said he intended to ‘legitimise’ himself as a fighter by upsetting the odds and getting the better of his fellow countryman.

‘I need to retain this world title,’ the 27-year-old told reporters.

‘It’s a great thing to have but I need to legitimise myself by winning this fight.
