SHOCK new footage has now surfaced of the party that caused Daniel Dubois to turn up late to his own fight against Oleksandr Usyk.
- less than 90 minutes before he was due to make his ringwalk.
The delayed arrival caused concern on the night and remained a mystery in the
But it has since emerged that Dubois’ imposing dad and mentor Stan at their Essex mansion.
Around 70 PEOPLE are said to have been there - some of whom the former IBF champion did not even know.
And now footage has been shared online of being mobbed by crowds of people at his house while music plays in the background.
The heavyweight is seen awkwardly smiling and posing for pictures as dozens of party goers chant “and the new” and “that’s the champ”.
It has been pointed out online that Dubois had a similar gathering in September before he knocked out at Wembley.
On that occasion, it was Joshua, 35, who arrived suspiciously late to the fight and his coaching team afterwards made that a point of discussion.
A report by The Times also suggested Dubois’ departure was delayed after Stan requested extra people carriers to bring his entourage to Wembley.
Stan then drove Dubois, 27, to the venue himself, which caused further issues as only designated vehicles had been accredited entry.
The boxer and his dad then astonishingly had to thenWALKto the stadium entrance on foot from the car park.
When the pair did finally arrive, footage surfaced online of Dubois’ entourage being refused entry by security.

He said on talkSPORT : “That is insanely disruptive. I’m very surprised, I’m shocked. That many people over? You’re preparing for a massive fight.
“You need rest, you need to chill, you need to get in the zone.”
Ex-cruiserweight champion Lawrence Okolie - who beat Kevin Lerena on the undercard - used to train with Dubois under coach Shane McGuigan.
And Okolie, 32, said: “The problem is, it’s coming from someone that he looks (to) out of the ring. It’s coming from his dad.
“I’ve trained with him, his dad’s a huge part of his life, so that is obviously going to be disruptive.”
