Daniel Dubois has been without trainer Don Charles this week ahead of his heavyweight world title showdown with Anthony Joshua at Wembley
Daniel Dubois' trainer has insisted the heavyweight is not struggling with a hand injury ahead of his fight with Anthony Joshua.
But assistant trainer Kieran Farrell told Sky Sports : "Daniel has no injury to his right hand - he's injured my hands with the power of his shots!" while Charles' son George Fox played down reports of a rift, adding: "No secret, no ploy, no plan to unsettle anyone." Charles is understood to be suffering from a cold and will not be at Thursday's press conference or Friday's weigh-in, but does plan to be in Dubois' corner on Saturday night.
Joshua opted not to work out but was joined by boxers from his old amateur gym. He said: "They're the boys and girls from my boxing club so we're in local town and I thought I'd bring them down. It's what it's all about, opening doors for people, like people open doors for me as well. I feel like I'm in the ring ready for my fight as well. It feels good. Canvas feels good. Size is good. I just need to get my wraps on and my gloves and I could fight today.
