Hearn Reveals Joshua's Next Target After Fury

Anthony Joshua has already identified his next opponent following the Tyson Fury fight scheduled for later this year, according to promoter Eddie Hearn.

Hearn told BetOnline's Politely Raw that Joshua wants another crack at Daniel Dubois, the only fighter to have beaten him without a rematch. Dubois stopped Joshua in their 2025 fight, a loss that still weighs on the former champion.

The promoter acknowledged the risk involved but said Joshua's competitive nature drives him toward settling old scores. "He wants to have another go at Daniel Dubois, and this is second nature to him," Hearn said, per BJPenn.com.

Hearn outlined two potential paths depending on the Fury outcome. A decisive stoppage of Fury would position Joshua for either a title unification with Dubois or a fight against Filip Hrgovic. A closer contest with Fury might instead lead to an immediate rematch between the two British heavyweights.

Joshua enters the Fury fight seeking redemption after setbacks against Oleksandr Usyk and Dubois cost him world titles. Victory over Fury would represent a defining moment in Joshua's career and establish him among Britain's boxing greats.

The long-awaited Fury showdown comes after years of negotiations and public callouts between the two UK stars.
