Daniel Dubois stopped Filip Hrgovic to clinch the IBF interim world heavyweight title and potentially set up an all-British clash with Anthony Joshua later this year.
Britain's Daniel Dubois took a huge step towards heavyweight world title contention after stopping IBF mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic in the eighth round of their fight in Riyadh on Sunday. Referee John Latham intervened 57 seconds into the round on doctors' advice at the Kingdom Arena with the big Croatian bleeding from cuts over the eyes.
The Croatian looked out on his feet in the seventh, with Dubois landing some punishing blows and adding to the damage from the cuts, but somehow made it to the bell. 'The round before the last, I was getting to him. It was just coming together like magic,' said Dubois, who admitted he had taken time to warm up. 'It's all a learning experience. I've come from rock bottom last year and now were back on top.
