Anthony Joshua is poised to trade blows with British rival Daniel Dubois at Wembley in September, according to talkSPORT's Spencer Oliver.
Dubois proved he has the intangibles to hang with the upper echelons of the heavyweight division with a spirited display against Filip Hrgovic on Saturday night.
Boxing fans had branded Dubois "a quitter" after the Brit saw out both of his professional losses to Joe Joyce and Oleksandr Usyk on one knee.
But 'Triple D' showed plenty of heart against Hrgovic as he came through early adversity to batter the Croatian from pillar to post en route to an eighth-round stoppage on cuts.
Now, he is the frontrunner to face AJ in an all-British showdown at Wembley Stadium on September 21 for the soon-to-be-vacated IBF heavyweight world title.
"Anthony Joshua is looking to become a three-time heavyweight champion, and guess what, that happens on September 21 at Wembley Stadium, they are already in talks," former European champion Oliver told talkSPORT.com.
