Isn't this entertainment? shouted Dubois in the post-match interview in the ring, to great jubilation from the audience.

British Dubois defended the title he won last summer and won by knockout. The 27-year-old dominated the match from the start and had his 34-year-old compatriot on his knees several times.

But the fifth round, which became the last, was still a bit dramatic. Joshua hit Dubois with his right twice and the latter seemed almost a little surprised. But then he came back, Dubois hit Joshua with his right several times and this time he couldn't get up again – the referee counted him out.

I'm a gladiator. I fight to the bitter end, I want to reach the top in boxing and my full potential, said Dubois in the victory roar.

Anthony Joshua had hoped to make history by winning the heavyweight title for the third time. Now, questions are being raised about whether his career may be over.
