Joseph Parker is gunning for a fight with Daniel Dubois after the latter's stunning KO win over Anthony Joshua. That's according to Parker's promoter, David Higgins, after the heavyweight division was blown wide open with a devastating performance from Dubois at a sold-out Wembley Stadium on Saturday night.
IBF champion Dubois, 27, needed just five rounds to blow AJ away and retain his world strap. A victory for Joshua, 36, would most-likely have paved the way for another all-British bout against Tyson Fury, but there's now doubt over that long-awaited match-up.
Fury must first take on undisputed world champion Oleksandr Usyk anyway in a rematch that has been inked-in for December 21 in Saudi Arabia.
