Anthony Joshua’s trainer Ben Davison says Daniel Dubois will quickly find out it’s a mistake to start “throwing punches” from the bat on Saturday night. Ben says that if any of AJ’s opponents take that aggressive approach right away, he could end up like Francis Ngannou.

Joshua (28-3, 25 KOs) knocked out 37-year-old former UFC champion Ngannou in the second round last March. However, Ngannou (0-2) had only fought once as a professional prior to that bout, and was not worthy of fighting a top-tier heavyweight.

Ngannou looked completely clueless in the ring, inexplicably switching stances towards the southpaw and immediately getting locked up by Joshua.

This circus fight should never have been sanctioned in the first place, and strangely, Ben Davison is using it as an example of what will happen to IBF heavyweight champion Dubois or any fighter who dares to use this approach against to Joshua.

“If someone thinks they can just come in and start throwing punches at AJ, they’ll find out very quickly, just like Francis Ngannou did,” said Ben Davison with his warning about what could happen to Dubois or other fighters. if they fight aggressively against Joshua. .

Obviously it won’t be good for Ben Davison if Dubois starts fast and knocks Joshua out in the early rounds on Saturday night. Joshua likely fired Davison soon after and then looked for the next flavor of the week to rebuild him.

It doesn’t matter who coaches Joshua; it is a sinking ship, and no one can fix it. Joshua’s problems are too severe for a new trainer because it involves age, ring wear, weak chin, poor stamina and lack of confidence.

“Now, I think he’s the best heavyweight in the world,” said Eddie Hearn during the final press conference about Joshua. “It will be an amazing night and history will be made by this man (Joshua).”

It will be interesting to hear Eddie Hearn’s speech on Saturday night if Dubois knocks out Joshua. Will it be Hearn’s old “Mistakes were made” speech?

“I believe Daniel Dubois will cement his legacy in boxing,” said Frank Warren.
