Liam Gallagher’s live performance ahead of Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois’ heavyweight clash was slammed by boxing fans.
Gallagher was selected to perform ahead of the huge showdown in front of 96,000 fans at Wembley Stadium, just weeks after he and his brother Noel Gallagher settled their differences to confirm the return of Oasis.
The announcement received an initial mixed reaction ahead of Joshua vs Dubois, but it seemed that fans weren’t convinced.

Boxing fans claim Oasis fans will ‘want refunds’ after live Liam Gallagher performance

Another said: “Anyone want £415 oasis tickets…having just witnessed 2 minutes of Liam Gallagher before the boxing I think I’m better on karaoke.
“Nice of Wembley to roll out the Benidorm tribute of Liam Gallagher,” added a third.
This user commented: “I don’t know what’s worse, Liam Gallagher’s voice or sweet Caroline.”
Simulated Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois fight predicts eighth round knockout
Joshua and Dubois will do battle at Wembley Stadium, London, but it’s not expected to go for long.
In a simulated fight, Joshua emerged the victor, knocking out his opponent in the eighth round after previously catching the 27-year-old off guard in the third round.
To make the winning shot more brutal, Joshua’s one-punch knockout appeared to leave Dubois in serious trouble, struggling to get up in time, bringing the fight to an immediate halt.
Of course, as this is a simulation there is no guarantee that Joshua does knock out Dubois and win the eighth round, however, the the former Olympic champion is the favorite to win on Saturday night,
