    If AJ really makes the decision not to activate rematch option (which I think would be wise decision for him), the fight between Dubois and Parker should be made. Nobody deserves a title fight at HW division more than Parker. He also has recognisable name and I think he might actually be an easier opponent for Dubois than murderous punching Zhang, who will nullify Dubois strengths with his ones - bigger size, counterpunching skills, probably even more punching power and southpaw stance. Of course, Parker is excellent boxer, but I think style wise he will be an easier opponent for Dubois than Zhang or Bakole

    Bad management by Parkers team. Has to get by Zhang first.

    Dubois is already in line for a title shot, a Parker fight just jeopardizes that .

    Dubios has the IBF belt already. He doesn't need a title shot anymore

    Interesting match up. I dont see anything other than a Dubois victory as Parker doesn't have enough power to stop him imo. Hopefully see this fight early next year

    Dubious should fight Wilder, funny result either way.

    Parker beats Dubois in a real war, Parker has gained mass and looks huge, and I believe he has also worked on his power.

    Usyk is the real heavyweight champion, that is where his shot comes from.

    Outside of Usyk-Parker this is the best fight that can be made at heavy.

    Johua, Fury, Wilder, Zhang...old news. Let the prime thoroughbreds have a go.

    Hes WBO interim champ.

    Fight would cut the 3 belts to 2.
