Daniel Dubois vs Joseph Parker - Tony Bellew makes big prediction for heavyweight blockbuster
Tony Bellew believes Joseph Parker can cause a huge shock when he goes in with Daniel Dubois on Saturday night in Riyadh for heavyweight glory.
Parker and Dubois will collide live on DAZN PPV as Dubois looks to make a successful second defence of his IBF crown.
Both fighters enter the bout in impressive form and although Dubois is a significant favourite, Parker has plenty of backers within the sport.
The popular New Zealander’s career at the top level looked to be over in 2022 when he was stopped by Joe Joyce in an empathic manner .
Since that loss, Parker has rebuilt well, and he has been able to score two huge wins over Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang .
Those victories have propelled him up the rankings and next for Parker is one of the biggest fights of his career as he goes in with Dubois .
Bellew has enjoyed what he has seen from Parker in his most recent fights, and he has provided his verdict on the first major heavyweight title fight of 2025.
“I’m gonna go with Parker, and I think it’ll be a late stoppage,” said Bellew during an exclusive chat with DAZN News.
“You can’t help but admire the way Dubois has turned his career around in recent years and I didn't see the Anthony Joshua result coming at all.
“Parker and his team, led by Andy Lee, will be fully aware of the threat posed by Dubois now and I think they’ll have the perfect plan to win this fight.
“There’ll be some tough moments in the early rounds, but if Parker can see them through, and i think he will because he’s strong and experienced he can slow Dubois down and make a big impact late on.”
