Daniel Dubois’ coach reveals 16-word message he gave moments before brutal KO of Anthony Joshua at Wembley

DANIEL DUBOIS’ coach gave him a 16-word message that helped inspire the shock knockout against Anthony Joshua.

Dubois floored Joshua FOUR times on the way to his stunning fifth-round KO in front of a British-record 98,000 fans at Wembley Stadium.

Head trainer Don Charles and assistant Kieran Farrell helped mastermind the tactical beatdown of two-time champion AJ.

And Farrell revealed he gave Dubois words of wisdom just as the bell sounded for what would be the greatest night of the heavyweight’s career.

Farrell told BoxingScene: “The first thing we said to Daniel was ‘Go out and give him something so that he knows he’s in the ring with you’; that’s exactly what he did.

“He went out there and slammed that jab down and that jab is like a f***ing back hand. It’s a powerful weapon.”

Dubois, 27, floored Joshua, 34 with a huge right hand in round one and the writing was on the wall from there.

AJ has spoken out in the aftermath of the crushing defeat to refuse retirement and has already held talks for his next move.

And promoter Eddie Hearn revealed Saudi boxing supremo Turki Alalshikh has given the green light for a rematch with Dubois.

But Farrell, a former 14-1 boxer, warned: “If I was advising Joshua, I wouldn’t be telling him to jump back in with Daniel Dubois – a young, hungry, 27-year-old lion.

“What I see day in, day out, I know what he is capable of, and Joshua does too now.

“If Daniel has somebody hurt, they ain’t going to see the final bell. He’s a devastating puncher and I’m only talking facts here.

“He’s like a modern-day Mike Tyson. But a bigger version. There are other fights there for Joshua. He can do the [Deontay] Wilder fight.

“That would be a good fight between two massive names who both need a big win right now.

A win for either of them in that fight would give them a load of confidence.

“They’ve been linked together for a long time and are both now coming off defeats. It would make sense to do that fight.”
