I like the way Dubois fights. He goes head-to-head, don\u2019t give a s**t,\u2019 Khan told <strong>Metro<\/strong> via Betway.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u2018When he fights, he goes for the full knockout. Look at what he did to AJ, he went into beast mode and knocked out an Olympic champion who has unified the division twice. He didn\u2019t beat just anybody, he beat one of the kings of the heavyweight division.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Daniel\u2019s one of the sick fighters that comes to war and fights. Now, when I said that he\u2019s going to win this fight, I\u2019ve had my friends, who are also big boxing fans who go to boxing fights together, saying that Fabio Wardley is going to knock out Daniel Dubois. and I disagree because the guy\u2019s got a bit of a chin on him.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"443\" src=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/GettyImages-2173600274.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=646\" class=\"article-image wp-image-27258730\" alt=\"Anthony Joshua v Daniel Dubois: Riyadh Season - Wembley Edition\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>\t<\/div><figcaption>Dubois flattened Joshua in September 2024 (Picture: Getty)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s a bit confusing to me though because Fabio Wardley has huge knockout power and the boy has some serious power. He has had some great wins including a former world champion in Joseph Parker and the KO against Frazer Clarke,<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I don\u2019t see Dubois freezing on the big stage. He has fought and beat AJ at Wembley Stadium in front of 90,000 and done the same again with Oleksandr Usyk. He lost the fight to Usyk, but this is Usyk, he\u2019s the greatest fighter of an era so there is no shame to that. I back Dubois to get the job done.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"metro-more-link\"><svg><title>Arrow<\/title>\n<use xlink:href=\"#common-right-arrow\" href=\"#common-right-arrow\"\/><\/svg><span class=\"mor-link\" data-track-module=\"mor-link_article\">MORE: Boxing match stopped as tear gas leaves fighters gasping for air in wild scenes<\/span><\/p>\n<section id=\"share-buttons-bottom\" class=\"share-buttons share-buttons-bottom\">\n\t\t\t<span><svg><title>Comment now<\/title>\n<use xlink:href=\"#social-comment\" href=\"#social-comment\"\/><\/svg><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"share-bar-comments__label\">Comments<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<span><svg><title>Add Metro as a Preferred Source on Google<\/title>\n<use xlink:href=\"#social-preferred-source\" href=\"#social-preferred-source\"\/><\/svg><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"share-bar-preferred-source__label\">Add as preferred source<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/section>\n<div class=\"newsletter-end-card accent--sport\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-end-card__inner\">\n<h4>Football Newsletter \u2013 In The Mixer<\/h4>\n<p>Punchy analysis, transfer talk and more from Metro&#8217;s football experts, sent straight to your inbox every week.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- \u603b\u5bb9\u5668\uff1a\u6700\u5927\u5bbd908px Grid\u7d27\u51d1\u5e03\u5c40 -->\r\n<div style=\"display: grid;
