DANIEL DUBOIS has been tipped for superstardom after silencing his doubters with brutal destruction of Anthony Joshua.
Dubois dropped the former two-time world champion on three occasions before flattening him in the fifth round to defend his IBF heavyweight title.
The 27-year-old had battled accusations of being a quitter following his defeats by Joe Joyce and Oleksandr Usyk.
There had been fears he would freeze in front of more than 98,000 fans at Wembley. Instead, Dubois produced the performance of his life to signal the start of a new era in British boxing.
