Israel Adesanya is backing Anthony Joshua in his heavyweight clash with Daniel Dubois this weekend (Sat., Sept. 21, 2024) LIVE on DAZN pay-per-view (PPV) from inside Wembley Arena in London, England, and “Last Stylebender” is putting his money where his mouth is.

Despite losing previous bouts to boxing’s heavyweight king, Oleksandr Usyk, Joshua remains one of the biggest stars in the sport. His popularity not only stretches across Europe, but the heavyweight knockout artist has become a household name over the past few years, especially with his recent knockout win over former UFC champion Francis Ngannou (watch HERE).

This weekend, Joshua will meet Dubois, who currently holds the IBF heavyweight title, in an anticipated clash of U.K. stars. Wembley Stadium has reportedly sold out and will host over 96,000 fans for the massive heavyweight title fight. Dubois is a respected fighter with even greater potential than what he’s given, but those 96,000 fans are coming to see Joshua compete.

With no other major combat events this weekend, all eyes will be on Joshua vs. Dubois. This includes former UFC middleweight king, Adesanya, who is putting $10,000 down on a late-round finish by Joshua. If Joshua is able to stop Dubois in the 10th, 11th, or 12th rounds, then “Last Stylebender” will walk away with $50,000. Not too shabby.
