LONDON: Daniel Dubois would “love a rematch” with either Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk -- depending on which boxer “pays me the most”.

Dubois retained his IBF world heavyweight title with a brutal fifth-round knockout of British rival Joshua at Wembley on Saturday, flooring the two-time former world champion four times in total.

Joshua has insisted his own boxing career is far from finished, with a potential rematch against Dubois as well as another all-British clash with Tyson Fury possible options for future bouts.

Dubois´s promoter Frank Warren, meanwhile, has said while there is no specific clause in his fighter´s contract for a swift rematch with Joshua, they could meet again if the right deal was agreed.
