    This is a good one for us to look forward to watching.

    What is your prediction?

    I'll be rooting for Joseph Parker, but Daniel Dubios is very strong and may use illegal tactics (head butts as in the Hrgovic fight and low blows as in the Usyk fight).

    Either Dubois by stoppage or Parker by decision - I think Dubois does the job tbh.

    Styles make fights, Parker was the wrong style for Zhang and Wilder, Joyce and Dubois are the wrong style for Parker. Daniel will do a demolition job on him, and be the second man to stop him. Which is unfortunate, because I really have no desire to see Usyk-Dubois 2, so I'm kind of rooting for Parker.

    I’m leaning towards Parker. I think he knows this might be his last shot at a title so that’ll bring out the very best of him. And I think Joe has underrated pop. He can do it.

    Plus Parker winning is just better for boxing imo.

    It’s a tall order but Parker will have a better game plan than what Hrgovic and AJ had.
    You can never underestimate the lads from down under and like you said a fight like this will bring out the best in him.

    Dubois walks Parker down, damages him with his ramrod jab and takes him out mid-rounds.

    I think it's his name.

    I mean... Joseph Parker. It's gotta be in the top ten for most bland boxing titlist names. Even his full name, Joseph Dennis Parker, is one of the most milquetoast names I've ever heard :sisi1

    Jokes aside, I had been picking Dubois to win this one, but I'm hoping like hell Parker can keep that upset streak going. I have absolutely zero interest in seeing yet another rematch for Usyk. Plus I've really enjoyed these call out videos of his, would be neat to see what he'd come up with for Usyk :lol:

    I think Dubois wins by KO. But if Parker wins that would make for a feel good story.

    Pretty sure Dubois is going to roll over him but I will be cheering for Parker and hope he can pull off the miracle comeback story.

    It's a good fight. Technically, Parker doesn't have to beat or even fight Dubois to get a shot at Usyk. He is the WBO mandatory.

    I feel Dubois would be the man during the normal circumstances, but I feel that fame got into his head recently. He is clearly overlooking Parker. Not only that. He lost class. Still taunting Joshua even after he beated him. He acts different. I wonder how big he is influenced by Don Charles and Warren.

    Let's do not forget that Parker was sick prior to Joyce fight.

    I go with Parker, I think he is in the right place and super motivated. It's gonna be MD or UD. It will be tough, but I believe he can stay away from Dubois. Super difficult fight.
