LENNOX LEWIS has backed Daniel Dubois to do to Anthony Joshua what he did to Frank Bruno.
Dubois and Joshua will clash 31 years after their predecessors met in the first all-British heavyweight world-title fight.
On that occasion, in front of more than 25,000 fans in Cardiff, Lewis defended his belt by stopping Bruno in the seventh round, denying the darling of British boxing a worldtitle triumph at his third attempt.
And while Joshua will bring the more decorated CV to the Wembley ring than his opponent on Saturday night, Lewis believes Dubois can launch his career into superstardom the same way he did three decades ago.
