Joshua for his third fight in is now preparing with trainer Ben Davison at the trainer’s gym in Harlow.

AJ released images from his training camp, showing his burly arms and abs peeking through his sweat-soaked top.

Needless to say, fans are worried about their opponent, as one said: “Good luck to Dubois because he’s going to retire early.”

Another added: “I don’t know who motivated Dubois to fight this guy.”

One of them shouted, “He got that Aura back.”

Joshua, 34, has the chance to become a three-time champion after Dubois, 26, was elevated from the interim IBF title to the full version.

That’s because Oleksandr Usyk, 37, vacated it to go ahead with his planned December 21 rematch against Tyson Fury, 35, following his victory in May.

Dubois’ promoter Frank Warren has revealed that the winner of September’s all-British fight puts them in line for Usyk or Fury.

Warren said Celestial sports: “All paths will lead to unification again.

“He is [Usyk] getting a big payday for the rematch he was booked for against Tyson.

“That’s the position. It’s pure business for him. If it was to hold the belts, he wouldn’t have given up.

“He’s in it for the money and obviously the rematch is a huge, massive fight that everyone wants to see. It was such a close fight last time, it’s a bigger fight now in December.

“No matter what happens, the winner of this fight on September 21st, which will be Daniel, will fight the winner of this fight, and the four belts will be on the line again.”
