Anthony Joshua looks to be in sensational shape ahead of his upcoming clash with Daniel Dubois.

The heavyweight titans are set to duke it out on September 21 at Wembley Stadium for the IBF title.

Oleksandr Usyk was previously in possession of the red and gold strap.

However, he vacated the title in order to pursue a rematch with Tyson Fury in December.

As a result, Dubois has been elevated from ‘interim’ to full world champion and will make the first defence of his title against the Watford powerhouse this summer.

Joshua is leaving no stone unturned in preparation for the fight and recently posted a frightening point-of-view video of him hammering the pads.

AJ captioned the video: “In an industry where respect is earnt and not given”, while his followers were amazed by the two-time world champion’s power.

Reacting to the video, one fan wrote: “That hurt even through Twitter!”

Another tweeted: “Damn!! Those sound like pain.”

A third commented: “Great to see this. I almost feel the punches.”

Meanwhile, a fourth supporter added: “I feel like I just got knocked out, multiple times.”

And somebody else remarked: “Scary power.”

Joshua vs Dubois is on track to break the British boxing attendance record next month.

Fury vs Dillian Whyte currently tops the list with 94,000 punters attending their Wembley Stadium clash after a special dispensation was granted by the local authority.

Joshua and Dubois have already sold 90,000 tickets, but Saudi boxing chief HE Turki Alalshikh and promoters Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren don’t intend to stop there.

The chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority recently had a request granted to extend the capacity to 96,000, which would surpass Fury and Whyte’s crowd.

The additional 6,000 tickets are set to go on sale on Friday at noon UK time – and are expected to fly off the shelves.
