- Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois: The supercomputer reveals the winner
- The software has predicted a 73.3 per cent chance of the fight ending via KO
Boxing fans are in for a blockbuster bout this weekend if the latest supercomputer predictions are correct.
British rivals Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois will go head-to-head at Wembley Stadium on Saturday night in a bout for the IBF heavyweight title and, to the delight of fans, a knockout blow is predicted.
Dubois will aim to defend the coveted title for the first time against a determined Joshua who is looking to become a three-time world champion.
Dubois, 27, has risen through the ranks having previously held the IBF interim title before being upgraded to the IBF heavyweight champion after Oleksandr Usyk vacated the title earlier this year.
Both men will be salivating at the mouth over the idea of becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion but there can only be one winner and here’s who the supercomputer is backing.

The Grosvenor Sport Super Computer has favoured the challenger, Joshua, ahead of the titanic clash.
‘AJ’ – who has a stellar record inside the ring of 28 wins and only three defeats – has been given a 77.8 per cent chance of winning by any means in front of a sold out Wembley.
Joshua – who has bounced back remarkably since suffering back-to-back losses against Oleksandr Usyk in 2021 and 2022 – is incredible form of late.
The 34-year-old’s resurgence has been nothing less than spectacular, winning his last four fights dating all the way back to April 2023, including his most recent bout against former UFC champion Francis Ngannou in March.
The boxing veteran delivered a second round blow to take his knockout tally to an outstanding 25, proving why he is still considered as one of the top heavyweights.

The title holder, meanwhile, has been given a much smaller chance to retain his title, according to the data.
The same supercomputer claims Dubois has a 22.2 percent of claiming victory on the night, with the remaining 3.85 percent going in favour of a draw.
The likelihood of the fight going the full distance is also slim, as the computer predicts that the fight has just a 26.7 percent chance of reaching the final bell.
The computer favours ‘AJ’ to deliver the lethal blow stating that Joshua has a 69.2 percent chance of producing a knockout or TKO.
Whilst Dubois has been given 15.4 percent chance of doing the same to Joshua.
It should come as a shock to nobody that the software is predicting a knockout considering the fighters records.
The current champion has a marvellous knockout record, managing to knock his opponent down in all but one of his 21 career wins.

Joshua on the other hand has a record just as impressive claiming 25 KOs from his 28, with him delivering knockout blows in all three of his last fights.
Meanwhile, Joshua has been predicted a 15.4 percent of winning via points compared Dubois’ 11.8 percent, should the fight go the distance.
