Legendary boxing promoter Frank Warren admitted that Daniel Dubois’ fight against Joseph Parker on Saturday night will be a close one – whilst having one eye on his boxer’s future following the title match in Riyadh.
Londoner Dubois (22-2, 21KO) is set to do battle with Kiwi Parker (35-3, 23KO) on February 22 for the IBF heavyweight belt and Hall of Fame promoter Warren is excited at what could be a thrilling clash between the two, with the victor set to fight Oleksandr Usyk for all the marbles.
Speaking to boxing betting site, Parimatch, 72-year-old Warren said: “I think this is a real 50/50 fight and it will be an exciting one.
“These fights are all eliminators and the guys are being put in mandatory positions, which is brilliant.
“We have made a decision to get heavyweight business and all roads lead to Usyk, which is great for him and great for all the fighters involved.
“There are all these mandatories lined-up and hopefully a unification between Usyk and the winner of the fight on Saturday.”
