ANTHONY JOSHUA has apparently sent a chilling warning in Daniel Dubois’ direction as the Brits prepare for a showdown at Wembley.
Dubois won the AJ draw and the interim IBF heavyweight title last weekend with a stunning eighth-round TKO victory over previously undefeated Filip Hrgovic in Saudi Arabia.

SunSport understands the pair are now in talks over a major domestic dispute at Wembley on September 20 or 21.
Joshua, 34, was ringside for the biggest win of Dubois’ career but warned him he will suffer another setback to his world title hopes when they take down.
Taking to Instagram to share a photo of himself watching the fight, AJ wrote, “The hardest part of my job is realizing that you have to ruin someone else’s dream to make yours come true.”
Dubois, 26, suffered a headache in his first attempt at heavyweight gold against undisputed champion Oleksandr Usyk last August.
And he vowed to “demolish” Joshua on his way to a second shot at the world title.
He said, “That’s what I’ve been hearing [that Joshua could be next]So let’s see.
“[Being world champion] it is a dream.
“From fighting for the world title to having the chance to win, this is what I want.

How AJ got to the top
ANTHONY JOSHUA clawed his way to the top of the world before being knocked off his perch.
“I’m going to demolish Joshua. I’ll be even better from here.”
Joshua has rediscovered his mojo with four straight victories, the most recent being his brutal second-round knockout of former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou.
But he’s refusing to ignore Dubois, who bounced back from his TKO loss to Usyk with successive stoppages of Jarrell Miller and Hrgovic.
The former two-time unified heavyweight champion said: “I have to take them out one by one.
“It won’t be easy, but that’s my mindset. So come, come everyone…
“He [Dubois] He’s been in tougher fights, so he’s hardened.
“He’s risen through the ranks, we’ll see what happens next future.
“Wembley, O2, York Hall – wherever they put me, I’m happy to fight. Anywhere I’ll go and do my job.”
