Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois are gearing up for a highly anticipated heavyweight showdown, but British boxer Frazer Clarke has thrown a surprising comparison into the mix. Clarke, an Olympic bronze medallist, has asserted that neither Joshua nor Dubois hit as hard as retired boxer David Price.
The remarks from Clarke, who holds a record of 8-0-1, come ahead of Joshua and Dubois’ clash for the IBF heavyweight title on September 21. This bout follows Oleksandr Usyk’s recent relinquishing of the belt.
Despite acknowledging the formidable punching power of both Joshua and Dubois, Clarke emphasized that it’s Price who truly impressed him. Price, known for winning 20 of his 25 professional bouts by knockout, evidently left a lasting impression on Clarke with his striking ability.
The comparison adds an intriguing dimension to the upcoming fight, highlighting the differing perspectives on punching power within the heavyweight division.
