Anthony Joshua's decision to not take a rematch with Daniel Dubois is not a surprise and he might not fight again, says Sky Sports expert Matthew Macklin.
Anthony Joshua's decision to avoid an immediate rematch with Daniel Dubois is not a surprise and he might not fight again, says Matthew Macklin. Dubois retained his IBF world title in devastating fashion at Wembley Stadium in September with a stunning fifth-round knockout of Joshua. Joshua has chosen not to immediately rematch Dubois in February 2025, with the fight date not fitting into his plans for next year as he looks to return from a crushing loss.
'Personally, I think that could be that for Joshua anyway,' Sky Sports expert Macklin added. 'When the dust settles, he has time to reflect and thinks about his next move, it wouldn't shock me at all if AJ doesn't box again and retires. And what a career he would have had. 'The Tyson Fury fight could still happen if he were to beat Oleksandr Usyk.
