Daniel Dubois’ next fight depends on whether Anthony Joshua wants to avenge the devastating knockout loss he suffered last weekend.
Contrary to initial reports There are no contractual competition requirements.According to boxing journalist Dan Rafael, however, a second Dubois-Joshua fight would be the most lucrative option for the IBF title holder.
If not, There are also other outstanding heavyweights. There are many more available. One name in particular stands out for Tony Bellew, the former cruiserweight title holder. Who is currently giving commentary on boxing
“That was Joseph Parker.” Bellew said in an interview with Liam Solomon from Instant Casino.– “No one in the heavyweight division had the same weight that Joseph Parker had. No one. Joseph Parker faced off against two boogeymen that no one wanted to go near back-to-back. He fought. with Deontay Wilder and literally beat him. Then he joined Zhilei Zhang to fight all the doubters. Listen, I think he will lose twice.”
Parker was once the heavyweight champion himself. Claiming the vacant WBO belt in 2016 with a majority decision over Andy Ruiz, Parker won defenses over Razvan Cojanu and Hughie Fury before losing in a unification match against Joshua in March 2018. It was the second defeat. Four Months Later with Dillian Whyte
Parker then racked up six straight victories, only to see his momentum falter in an 11th round knockout loss to Joe Joyce in 2022. However, he has since Parker also has a very good performance. He has won five straight and is making the most of the many heavyweight bouts that appear on the Riyadh season card. Parker won a unanimous decision over Wilder in December 2023 and a majority decision over Zhang in June. This puts the 32-year-old New Zealander at 35-3 (23 KOs).
“As for Joseph Parker, he deserves that date by fate,” Bell said. “I cut Joseph Parker from the last two fights and I cut Daniel. Dubois exits his last 2 fights” It’s a pay cut fight! I don’t know which way to go. But what I will say is that Daniel Dubois and Joseph Parker are going to have an amazing fight. This could be Ike Ibeabuchi vs. David Tua again. They’re going to throw a lot of punches between the two. It will definitely be a slugfest.”
