Daniel Dubois makes blunder ahead of seismic Anthony Joshua fight at Wembley

Daniel Dubois has made a blunder on social media ahead of his showdown with Anthony Joshua on Saturday.

The two men will do battle at a sold-out Wembley Stadium, with excitement and hype building as they prepare to lock horns.

Joshua is hoping to continue his stunning form, having won all four of his clashes since being beaten by Oleksandr Usyk for a second time in 2022.

As for Dubois, victory will see him retain his IBF heavyweight belt as he targets the biggest scalp of his career.

The 27-year-old has, however, made an amusing blunder on social media as the showdown approaches.

He wrote on Instagram on Thursday, saying: "Here's a strong and engaging caption for the final press conference post:

"The final press conference is done - the talking stops here. Now, it's time to let the fists do the talking. I'm ready for this fight. Let's go."

But it appears Dubois appeared to forget to delete the first half of his caption, something that was spotted by fans online.

One user said: "This could be an accident or it could be deliberate: either way it is very, very funny."

A second joked: "I think Daniel is secretly a stand up comedian and he’s got us all on toast!"

And a third quipped: "I now like him more."

Dubois will be the underdog when he steps out at Wembley due to Joshua's years of experience.

Yet he's confident he can emerge victorious, while also saying he feels AJ is 'there for the taking'.

"I need to take him back to that dark place and make him uncomfortable in there, make him break down in the ring," he said.

"That's what I plan to do. He's right for the taking now.

"I'm on the rise, I've got the momentum on my side. No more words - just fighting, punches. I'm ready to fight and destroy. Destroy."

He continued: "The last two fights were my redemption.

"This is about planting a flag – moving forward as a world champion. I'm just a hungry young lion right now.

"I'm there to take the respect, you know. In boxing there's no respect and I'm ready take it, retain my belt and still be world champion."

Dubois' promoter, Frank Warren, is confident his man will come out on top.

"Daniel's fought much better quality opposition in his last few fights, no doubt about that," Warren proclaimed.

"He's been the underdog in every one of those fights and he's come through them and done what he's had to do.

"The man who's got all the pressure in him is AJ. He's going into this as a favourite, according to a lot of people.

"He's the one who can't afford to lose this fight because (he's) 34 years old. If he loses this fight what happens?"
