    I think they will politic Dubois into position somehow. But I'd like to see Parker get his shot. Then Kabayel

    Both Kabayel and Parker deserve a fight with Usyk and I like them both, Dubois owes the fight to Parker who was exclusively preparing for that fight, but we will see the outcome of the whole situation...

    Usyk wants undisputed. Taking it off him was low. Give him DDD then Parker.

    I think this is thenmost likely scenario, I'd just feel sad for Parker and Kabayel if they had to fight each other as they have both grinded away to get their title shots and are on the cusp of getting them or even being elevated to full champ.

    For me, Dubois beating parker was the only way to really justify dubois getting a rematch. if he couldn't get past parker he had no hope in a usyk rematch imo and if parker beat dubois he clearly deserved a shot at usyk.

    I'd rather let the dubois v parker match go ahead still and let that be the determining factor on who he faces out of those two and let kabayel be his last fight (if he does truly have two fights left in him)

    I just hope and pray we dont waste usyks two last fights on a rematch clause that goes for both fighters due to being champions. really dont want a dubois trilogy as his last fight lol

    Reality will likely be dubois vs parker never happens. we jump straight to usyk vs dubois. after that Usyk fights Parker and retires. Sadly i think we will likely miss out on what would have been a great fight between usyk and kabayel.

    Former HW champion of the world and current interim champion J-Park also agrees that Usyk is the GOAT

    Three-weight world champion and P4P sensation Shakur Stevenson sees him right up on that GOAT tier too

    Usyk should invest in his resume, he already has the Dubois win on there. He should line up fights with whoever he thinks will be the next generation of champs.

    I'm even thinking something like Parker then Itauma, since Parker is looking like a champ this generation and Itauma the next.

    Kabayel is the only one that stands a chance of winning. If Usyk beat him I think it would age like wine given that I believe Kabayel could beat any of the current crop of heavyweights outside of Usyk
