In the fifth round, a determined Joshua appeared to rally, landing a powerful right hand that momentarily shifted momentum. However, as he pressed forward for a potential comeback, Dubois delivered a devastating straight right that sent Joshua sprawling to the canvas.
The referee called off the fight as Joshua, unable to recover, fell near the ropes. The record crowd of 96,000 was left in shock, though Dubois' supporters celebrated his remarkable victory.
Following the match, Joshua’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, indicated that Joshua plans to activate his rematch clause, while the fighter himself acknowledged Dubois' skill and expressed his intention to continue competing.
