    Gonna be one of these two for sure.

    For me, it's Dubois. Great performance from him tonight. Either of them would make for good fights tbf.

    Parker should be in the running too of course but Turki doesn't seem interested in that fight.

    Either guy would be interesting. I think AJ would rather fight Dubois than Zhang.

    Joshua should fight Parker. He is the only guy who has earnt that.

    Dubois should fight Zhang to fight the winner of Aj & Parker. The winner of that mini tournament can fight the winner of Usyk Fury rematch

    Zhang. Dubois will be around for years. Zhang will not.

    Neither.

    Would rather see him fight Parker in a rematch.

    Both Zhang and DD can either avenge one of their recent losses or fight eachother.

    He'll likely choose Dubois as that seems like the easier fight and could be for a title. I'd like to see Parker get a shot at Dubois if he is elevated though.

    Zhang will be frozen out of the HW title picture for the next couple years. Too much risk for little reward. Dubois is a more enticing opponent right now. He has heat on his name coming off the Usyk and Hrgovic fights and he's very beatable.

    The only correct answers are dubious or parker anything else is waste of a fight

    Zhang, because I'm a huge fan of Zhang and I want him to get as many big fights as possible, he doesn't have much time left at 41

    I also think Zhang gives AJ more problems than Dubois. AJ will find it pretty easy to land right hands and uppercuts on Dubois. AJ will be able to land on Zhang as well but the southpaw lead right hook, and his deceptively quick straight left, will make AJ more hesitant, and could drop AJ too.

    Unfortunately I think Hearn and Warren will come together to make AJ-Dubois, it's now a massive all-British stadium fight (probably for the IBF title once Dubois gets upgraded) that they can sell to UK casuals in autumn/winter this year

    That's why he was allowed to use his head as a battering ram all night while largely being outboxed. AJ/Dubois is a big fight in England and easy way for AJ to get a belt again. Dubois won't last 3 rounds.

    AJ vs Zhang
    Dubois vs Kabayel
    Parker vs Whyte II

    All on the same card on September 21. Make it happen

    It should be Parker, and like others have noted Zhang vs DuBois, then the winners meet.
