The British boxer was eliminated in the fifth round in Wimbledon before 96,000 fans from the 27-year-old local rival, the Daily Mail reports.
Dubois retained his title in the heavy weight of the IBF with impressive victories, bringing down his opponent four times.
Under the protocol, Joshua is now barred from entering the ring for 28 days, with the British Box Control Board implementing the rule.
The Association of Boxing and War Sports Commissions stresses that it is standard procedure for boxers to receive medical suspensions after losing to knockout and technical knockout.
The brief ban is unlikely to deter Joshua, given that his next opponent has not yet been appointed after he insisted he will continue boxing.
