Hearn has stated that Joshua and Dubois might fight for the IBF title currently held by Usyk

Promoter Eddie Hearn spoke about the IBF title currently held by Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk:

"Will the Joshua-Dubois fight be for a title? For that, we need Usyk to be honest and admit that he doesn't want to fight Dubois, who is the mandatory challenger. Usyk should fight him, but he has a rematch with Fury.

It might be that Joshua and Dubois will fight for the IBF title, while all other belts will be on the line in the Usyk-Fury rematch. Then, the winners of these fights could face each other for the undisputed championship," said Hearn.

The Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois fight could take place on October 21, 2024, while the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury is scheduled for December 21.

Earlier, Hearn revealed when Anthony Joshua might retire.
