who is the favorite to win this Saturday, between Joshua & Dubois

There are two days to go until Anthony Joshua’s fight against Daniel Dubois for the IBF heavyweight world title, which will take place at London’s Wembley Stadium on Saturday, September 21.

A crowd of 96,000 is expected at Britain’s home of football, where much more than a belt is at stake, although Joshua is the challenger, he risks remaining the favorite of the British fans, and in case of a defeat, he would cede the title to Dubois.

The winner bids for a fight against either Oleksandr Usyk or Tyson Fury, who will meet in a rematch on December 21 in Saudi Arabia for Usyk’s WBA, WBC and IBO heavyweight belts.

For Joshua (28-3, with 25 KOs), it would mean claiming a third heavyweight title, and might even have him thinking about retirement.

“I’ve been in the well. Dan is fighting someone who is willing to die there,” Joshua told reporters at a public event Wednesday.

Dubois, for his part, is looking to make the first defense of his title with the motivation to become the next boxing star in the UK.

“I’m getting used to the idea that I’m the world champion, but I think I need to legitimize it by beating AJ. That’s how I do it and cement my name, cement my legacy in the sport of boxing,” Dubois said in an interview with AP.

What are the odds for Joshua vs Dubois?

Anthony Joshua is not only the fan favorite and the main attraction of this Saturday at Wembley, he is also the betting favorite with a -500 odds on a win by any means, which for $100 would give a profit of $20, but betting on a knockout in any round improves to -250, this represents a dividend of $40, for the same $100, instead if AJ is chosen winner by technical decision, the odds are more attractive and is +550.

On the side of Daniel Dubois any risk is very well paid with an odds of +330 for a win in any way, if it is by knockout in any round it goes up to +450 or by technical decision to +1400. In case of a draw the odds are +1800.
