In most title fights, the challenger enters first, followed by the champion. However, during the Joshua-Dubois fight, Dubois, the champion, walked out first, breaking the usual tradition. Daniel Dubois has torn out the dream of Joshua to snatch the IBG title. On this occasion, one fan took to Twitter and stated that:

“So Dubois is the world champion, on the basis the IBF gave him the belt, why did he walk out first? The champion usually gets the second walk. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a defending champion come out first for a ring walk! What is this woke nonsense.”

Still, it was a frustrating night for Joshua as the challenger Dubois sent him to the canvas several times before stopping him in the fifth with a right hand. This fight was no doubt a very bad fight for Joshua as he underestimated his opponent, who was the IBF title holder and was considered an aggressive fighter in the current era of boxing.

Final Thoughts

This is a perfect example of how boxing can be unpredictable. Although Daniel Dubois was a deserving favorite to beat Anthony Joshua, few would have anticipated such a comprehensive victory for the rising star. Although we witnessed Joshua making derisive comments to Dubois and trying to dominate and order him around at the beginning of their fight, the latter had the last word as his strength and accuracy finally triumphed.

Whether it was due to the intention to mislead fans, fans were left puzzled by the order of the ring walk. This was a small controversy that puffed into nothingness as Dubois demonstrated his skill through a fitting fifth round knockout.
