    Anthony Joshua to break Tyson Fury’s record

    Anthony Joshua is certain to break Tyson Fury’s British attendance record in his forthcoming world title fight against Daniel Dubois.

    Joshua will face Dubois for the IBF title on September 21 at Wembley Stadium, where organisers estimate over 100,000 people.

    Fury broke a British attendance record in April 2023, when 94,000 people packed Wembley Stadium to watch him defeat Dillian Whyte.

    In an interview with talkSPORT, promoter Frank Warren expressed optimism that the upcoming bout would exceed that figure.

    “Oh, it’s massive. I mean, we will be applying to increase the capacity like we did last time when Tyson Fury fought against Dillian Whyte. And I think we’ve got it; I think we will probably break that record. So, it’s really looking good,” he said.

    Joshua, 34, is no stranger to sell-out stadium spectacles; he defeated Wladimir Klitschko in front of nearly 90,000 people at Wembley Stadium in 2017.

    He also drew 75,000 at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium and another 62,000 at Tottenham’s football stadium.

    However, his last two fights were in Saudi Arabia, where he defeated Otto Wallin and former UFC champion Francis Ngannou via knockout.

    Warren acknowledged Joshua’s challenge but remained hopeful about Dubois’ possibilities.

    “A lot of people are making Joshua a favourite, and they’re saying AJ is a big puncher and so forth, and I hope he comes out and comes to fight because if he lets those big punches go, I know that will leave him exposed. If Daniel clips him, it will knock him out. I think Daniel is the bigger puncher,” Warren said.

    “I genuinely think that Daniel can win this; he’s a young man, and he’s fought better opposition in his last three fights than AJ has. And by the way, AJ has looked good in his last few fights, but not against as good opposition as what Daniel has been in with.”
