Wembley Stadium sold out for Anthony Joshua - Daniel Dubois fight
Anthony Joshua shows that he is as popular as ever, with his September 21st IBF world title bout against Daniel Dubois selling out Wembley Stadium.
If you’re a fan of heavyweight boxing, mark your calendar for September 21st, because Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois are about to turn Wembley Stadium into the center of the universe. These two heavyweights are set to clash for the IBF world title, and it’s safe to say that the anticipation is off the charts. You could practically feel the electricity in the air when they stood face to face at the launch press conference - two giants ready to go to war. And guess what? If you haven’t grabbed your ticket yet, you’re out of luck - Wembley is officially sold out.
This fight is more than just another bout. It’s a spectacle, a blockbuster event that has all the makings of an unforgettable night. With a packed undercard and a live performance by Liam Gallagher, the evening is going to be as much about entertainment as it is about boxing. Chairman Turki Alalshikh made the announcement that general admission tickets are gone, snapped up by fans eager to witness history. If you’re still hoping to be there, your only chance is to snag one of the remaining platinum or hospitality tickets.
For Joshua, Wembley is like a second home. This is the same stage where he delivered his legendary victory over Wladimir Klitschko, a night that catapulted him to global stardom. He followed that up with another huge win against Alexander Povetkin. But this time, things are a little different. Joshua is stepping into Wembley not as the champion but as the challenger. Dubois, who was the IBF’s interim titlist, now holds the full championship belt after Oleksandr Usyk vacated the title. This twist adds an extra layer of intrigue to what’s already shaping up to be a dramatic showdown.
For Daniel Dubois, this fight is a career-defining moment. He’s been chasing the chance to prove himself on the biggest stage, and there’s no bigger opponent in British boxing than Anthony Joshua. Dubois is young, hungry, and ready to make his mark. And let’s be honest, taking down a name like Joshua could rocket him into the stratosphere of the sport. His trainer, Don Charles, has been talking up Dubois’s preparation, saying that his fighter is in the best shape of his life. And Dubois himself isn’t shy about his ambitions.
“I’m just aiming to be the best. To fight the best and beat the best,” Dubois said. “AJ has been the king for a long time, and we all know it, so on the night I need to become a king-slayer. That’s my goal and that’s the mission at hand. I’ve improved all around as a fighter and an athlete. I’m really up for this and ready to go.”
Joshua isn’t taking any of this lightly either. He’s been around the block, and he knows what’s at stake. “I’m not silly, either, I know the game,” Joshua said. “We’re all in the wild. We’re a pack of lions and hunters. It’s the next man up. I’ve had Dubois on my mind for a while.” He’s focused, he’s determined, and he’s treating this fight like the war that it promises to be.
The buildup to this fight has been nothing short of intense. With Joshua looking to reclaim his place at the top and Dubois aiming to solidify his status as a champion, the stakes couldn’t be higher. The fight is more than just a contest of strength and skill; it’s a battle of wills, a test of who wants it more. And for the fans, it’s an event that’s not to be missed.
So here we are, with just a few weeks to go until these two titans step into the ring. Wembley will be packed, the lights will be bright, and the atmosphere will be electric. When the first bell rings on September 21st, all the talk, all the hype, will fade away, leaving just two men with gloves on their hands and fire in their eyes. One of them will walk out as the IBF world heavyweight champion. The only question is, who will it be?
