    A British post-WWII record crowd of 96,000 boxing fans is expected to attend Wembley Stadium this weekend to see two locals fight for the IBF world heavyweight crown

    A British post-WWII record crowd of 96,000 boxing fans is expected to attend Wembley Stadium this weekend to see two locals fight for the IBF world heavyweight crown


    Holder Daniel Dubois ... who was promoted to the title after Ukraine's Oleksandr Usyk chose not to defend the belt... will meet former champion Anthony Joshua.

    Dubois is downplaying the idea that he'll have a few nerves walking to the ring in front of such a huge crowd.



    Joshua could become a three-time heavyweight world champion if he wins... joining the likes of Muhammad Ali, Lennox Lewis, Evander Holyfield and Vitali Klitschko.
