How Daniel Dubois went From Underdog to Champion
Despite growing up in a family with a Boxing heritage, Dubois’ early career was marred by major losses.
He lost to Joe Joyce in 2020 with a fractured orbital bone and a shranked confidence.
His situation worsened in 2023 with a controversial defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, reinforcing public skepticism about his potential.
Dubois’ tide began to turn in early 2024 with a brilliant victory against Filip Hrgovic in a keenly contested eight-round fight that showcased his precision and power.
The momentum continued with a dominant win against Jarrell Miller, whose loud persona and aggressive style could not match Dubois’ refined techniques and improved defense.

A packed Wembley Stadium saw him win a fight against Anthony Joshua – a two-time world champion in a seventh-round knockout that secured him the WBA Heavyweight title and cemented his status among boxing’s elite.
Dubois’ rise to glory is proof that we can achieve anything we put our mind to if we don’t get discouraged by setbacks but keep pushing and trying.
