British stars AJ and Dubois will face each other on Saturday, September 21 at Wembley Stadium.

The clash will mark Joshua’s fourth appearance in the home of English football.

Although this is the first time Dubois will fight under the arch.

The winner will also take the IBF title, with Usyk revealing he has been stripped of or given up the belt.

But most significantly, it will set up a heavyweight showdown against either Fury or Usyk.

The two kings of the division meet again in Saudi Arabia on December 21, with Usyk inflicting the first defeat of Fury’s career in May.

And one of Joshua or Dubois will have the chance to step in and fight for all the heavyweight titles next year.

AJ had already been tipped to fight Deontay Wilder in a money-grabbing fight.

But the American suffered a surprise defeat to Joseph Parker last Christmas, before losing to Zhilei Zhang earlier this month, ending his match chances.

Dubois emerged as the obvious candidate after bouncing back from defeats to Joe Joyce and Oleksandr Usyk with good wins over Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic.

But there will be other surprises in the battle at Wembley in September as part of Riyadh’s season in Saudi Arabia.

Rap star Eminem is performing in August’s WBA super welterweight title clash between Terrence Crawford and Israil Madrimov in Los Angeles.

And a major musical artist will also be a part of Joshua vs Dubois to make the occasion even grander.

In addition to a concert, two giant children’s parks will be installed around Wembley to create a family-friendly environment.

There is also a stacked undercard for boxing purists to enjoy throughout the night.

The most eye-catching matchup is the interim light heavyweight title clash between Joshua Buatsi and Willy Hutchinson.

And there’s also an IBF super featherweight title fight between Anthony Cacace and Josh Warrington.
