“Couldn’t have done more.” Hearn told what was Joshua’s mistake in the fight with DuBois

Eddie Hearnthe promoter of a famous heavyweight boxer Anthony Joshua (28-4, 25 KO), spoke about the defeat of his ward in the match against Daniel Dubois (22-2, 21 KOs):

“Davison gets all the praise for his last few performances. AJ was doing things that Ben didn’t tell him to do, he was driving back in a straight line with his chin up, his hands in the wrong position, all in that spirit.

At this point it started to recover, but it was still very low and it wasn’t going to change. You don’t want to end up being damaged goods after 9 or 10 rounds. It was a chance when he hurt DuBois in the 5th round. He made a comeback, you beat him in the fourth round. I think that is commendable.

I think one of the things I told him was, ‘Even though you boxed badly and made mistakes, you couldn’t have done more, you couldn’t have tried harder, you couldn’t have given yourself more, you couldn’t have been braver. And by the way, when you got knocked down, you tried to knock him down because you wanted to hurt him. So you should be proud of what you’ve done.”

Dubois boxed beautifully. That’s right, and you know Joshua is very disappointed with the work he’s put in more than anything else, but he’s also very determined to fight back and get another shot at the world heavyweight title.”

We will remind, on the night of September 21 to 22, 2024, a fight between British heavyweight boxers Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois took place. In the 5th round, Dubois knocked out his opponent, having knocked him down three times before.
