DANIEL DUBOIS was not in the mood to celebrate his birthday, so he dumped a scrumptious cake with Anthony Joshua’s face.

The IBF heavyweight champion celebrated his 27th birthday on Friday with a grueling training session overseen by coach Don Charles.

Charles and the rest of Dubois’ team later broke out into Stevie Wonder’s ‘Happy Birthday’ and presented a cake with the face of upcoming opponent AJ to ‘Triple D’.

But Dubois wasn’t in the mood for a singsong, shouting “Stop the music” before punching the tasty-looking cake with his right hand.

The softly-spoken but heavy-handed Dubois then roared “This is business.”

Charles couldn’t quite believe it, jokingly saying: “Be nice, it’s your birthday.”

Footage of Dubiois destroying his birthday cake went viral on social media.

One boxing fan commented on the X tape, “I’ll give it to Dubois, he’s turned his persona around and now has quite the personality.”

Another person added, “That’s the closest he’s gonna get, lol.”

Another added, “Dubois has a promising acting career when he retires.”

One remarked: “Might be only 1 he lands b4 being tucked up in his cot by AJ.”

Another chimed in: “The lack of respect he’s showing to AJ is going to come back on him big time.

“You’d think after the [Joe] Joyce / [Oleksandr] Usyk losses he’d be a bit more humble & respect the game more, but trying to force a deep rivalry with AJ isn’t the one.”

On September 21, Dubois will defend his IBF heavyweight title for the first time against Joshua at Wembley Arena.

A massive crowd of 96,000 will gather at the home of English football for a major domestic clash.

And Dubois is determined to herald in a new era at heavyweight by knocking former two-time unified champion AJ out cold.

He added, “AJ has been the king for a long time, and tonight I must become a king slayer.

“That’s my goal, that’s the task at hand.

“I’m discovering more about myself as a fighter and as a person, emerging out of the shadows and into the light, and improving as a fighter and athlete in general.

“I’m up for this and ready to go.”
