The only man to have beaten both Joseph Parker and Daniel Dubois has given his prediction for their upcoming IBF heavyweight title fight on Saturday.
Joseph Parker and Daniel Dubois are set to fight for Dubois’ IBF heavyweight title on Saturday 22nd. They fight on the undercard of Dmitry Bivol vs Artur Beterbiev.
Bivol has recently revealed the key to beating Beterbiev as he reflects on their first fight.
Parker is looking to become a two-time heavyweight world champion, after first winning a title against Andy Ruiz in 2016.
Dubois has been on a dominant run of form, stopping Jarrell Miller, Filip Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua following his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
Joe Joyce Weighs in on Heavyweight Clash
“I’m excited to see that one. Obviously, may the best man win,” Joyce told Sky Sports News.
“I’ve shared the ring with them both. I think I’m leaning for either Parker on points or Dubois knockout.”
Joyce, who stopped Dubois in 2020 and Parker in 2022, knows firsthand the strengths of both men. He is the only man to stop Parker.
However, while Parker and Dubois are battling for a world title, Joyce is looking to revive his own career after a difficult run. The 38-year-old has suffered back-to-back losses to Zhilei Zhang and was recently beaten by Derek Chisora in a shock upset.
Now, he’s set to face Dillian Whyte in a crucial fight for his future on April 5th.
For now, though, Joyce is focused on watching his former opponents clash for championship glory.
Whether Parker’s durability or Dubois’ power proves decisive, Joyce’s insight offers an intriguing perspective on a fight that could reshape the heavyweight division.
