Anthony Joshua Unleashed: Promoter Eddie Hearn Reveals Shocking Transformation Ahead Of Heavyweight Showdown
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

According to promoter Eddie Hearn, Anthony Joshua holds a psychological advantage heading into his upcoming heavyweight world title clash against Daniel Dubois, asserting that Joshua has shed his defensive mindset.
Scheduled for September at Wembley Stadium, Joshua seeks to reclaim the IBF crown recently vacated by Oleksandr Usyk, aiming to secure his third world championship.


Meanwhile, Dubois, a fellow Brit, eyes his first world title in what promises to be a fiercely contested match.
Their initial face-off encountered turbulence, resulting in a canceled bout due to escalating tensions.
Joshua, typically composed in press conferences and fights, unexpectedly showed a different side by threatening physical confrontation after feeling disrespected. Promoter Eddie Hearn believes this incident signals a transformation in Joshua’s demeanor.

He attributes Joshua’s newfound assertiveness to maturity, acknowledging that the 34-year-old heavyweight has achieved nearly all his career goals and now approaches fights with renewed confidence. “He’s always had that competitive edge,” Hearn explained. “But now he appears less guarded. Coming from a background in the corporate environment of GB school post-Olympics, Joshua has been a pivotal ambassador, revitalizing interest and participation in boxing at grassroots levels.
However, Hearn notes, “Now, if challenged, he’s ready to go all out.” Hearn emphasized that while Joshua’s fundamental character remains unchanged, his demeanor now reflects heightened self-assurance and determination.
This shift in mindset, Hearn suggests, could prove pivotal as Joshua prepares to face Dubois in what promises to be a defining moment in both boxers’ careers.
