The Road to This Showdown
Daniel Dubois’ journey to this fight began with a sensational fifth-round stoppage of Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium in 2024, solidifying his claim to the IBF title. Initially, Joshua was expected to seek a rematch in early 2025, but after failing to commit, Dubois shifted his focus to Parker.
For Joseph Parker, a 2022 defeat to Joe Joyce seemed to mark a downturn in his career. However, he has since rebounded impressively with victories over Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang, re-establishing himself as a top contender.
As both fighters prepare for battle, anticipation continues to build for what promises to be one of the year’s most electrifying heavyweight clashes.
