Former boxing world champion Anthony Joshua just challenged Daniel Dubois for the IBF world heavyweight title. Dubois was recently promoted to IBF world heavyweight champion after Oleksandr Usyk vacated the belt.
The all-British heavyweight title bout was expected to go down in front of a record crowd of 96,000 at the iconic Wembley Stadium in London, England.

Dubois started strong and floored his opponent twice on the first three rounds. In the fifth round, he landed a counter right that left Joshua on the canvas where the referee counted him out.
The win sets up the possibility of Dubois fighting for the undisputed world heavyweight title next, against the winner of the Dec. 21 fight between WBC, WBA and WBO champion Oleksandr Usyk and his rival Tyson Fury.
