I find this a tough one to call, Usyk aside, these are the two form men at heavyweight.
Parker has potential to ‘old man’ Dubois if he boxes intelligently and controls the pace… but the wins against Miller & Hrgovic seemed to have built real confidence in Dubois, and he looked so good against AJ that it’s hard to bet against him.
Anthony Joshua should have beaten Daniel Dubois 'If he executed his customary solid fundamental boxing fight. Instead? Joshua seemingly disregarded his Olympic Gold Medal boxing skills and many years of experience as being one of the three Heavyweight Mountains of this era'.
To beat Daniel Dubois is no mystery 'I believe that most of the World's top boxing trainers, and fighters are? Very aware of the blue print and approach to beat Daniel Dubois. In all of his top level fights, in reality? Dubois has been done by the middle rounds. And this is because as a fighter, Dubois is a front runner'.
Daniel Dubois was done by the middle rounds vs Joe Joyce, he was done by the middle rounds vs OIeksandr Uysk 'And in my opinion, he was starting to erode vs Anthony Joshua even at his worst during their fight. Joshua from the moment he was deck in round one, got up off the canvas? To then fight his way back into the fight. If it was not for the uncharacteristic unforced errors, and technical mistakes from Joshua. In my opinion all the signs were there, that he would of completely taken over in the second half of the fight'.
Note: Daniel Dubois may have knocked out Anthony Joshua 'But go and look at the two fighters, during the aftermath of the fight. Daniel Dubois appeared to have sustained more structural damage than Joshua. Daniel Dubois on his best night, in a so called one sided performance? Was smashed up by Anthony Joshua at his worst'.
Yes. Daniel Dubois did show courage, and a certain level of resolve to battle on vs Joe Joyce with a injury 'But regardless, as the rounds progressed in that fight. Joe Joyce was systematically beating him up, with a straight forward game plan. Joyce effectively beat Dubois with his jab, solid movement and composure while under the attack from Daniel Dubois'.
To conclude: I personally think Joseph Parker and his team are just too smart 'Andy Lee is too good of a boxing analyst, to not be aware of how to beat Daniel Dubois. Andy Lee knows that Daniel Dubois is a front runner. During the Parker vs Dubois face off, Lee questioned Dubois on some of his past performances. Andy Lee could of pushed the issue, but out of respect? In my opinion he backed off. Lee most likely backed off from pushing the issue, because he was a fighter himself competing professionally not so long ago'.
Daniel Dubois is the favourite to win 'Only because there is no denying, that he has big momentum in his career right now. But I would not be surprised if Joseph Parker wins, and? Immediately when this fight was announced. I stated that if the fight goes past 5 to 6 rounds Daniel Dubois will begin to fade. Like he has done historically in all of his top level fights. Beating a out of condition, domestic level American Heavyweight Jarrell Miller in 10 rounds, does not prove that he is not a front runner'.
Toney Bellew said it best 'Fighters like Daniel Dubois are ether going to win in spectacular fashion, or get beaten in spectacular fashion'. The clock is ticking; it is just a question of when? Joseph Parker, Anthony Joshua II, Oleksandr Uysk II, I would even give Joe Joyce a chance of beating Daniel Dubois in a second fight'.
Joseph Parker just needs to box a sensible and technically sound fight in the early rounds 'And look to establish his jab. The rounds will beat Daniel Dubois, just by staying in the fight and not wilting under any attacks. I honestly believe those tactics can have a big impact on Daniel Dubois'.
I rate Daniel Dubois as a dangerous, powerful and aggressive fighter 'But I don't rate him super highly as complete fighter. He is there for the taking in my opinion, by Top level fighters with an all round boxing game and power. Both Anthony Joshua and Joseph Parker have all of those attributes' etc.
I like Parker by UD. He has more tools and a higher ring IQ.
I like Parker but I think he gonna have a hard time against thé rejuvenated DDD
He is gonna have to move much to get away from Dubois’s power and I’m not sure he has it in him to be as educated as his ring iq would suggest

If anything DDD has shown more heart in his last three fights than anything else
And all three of his opponents being knocked out
I’d say your statement would be true but not since his loss against Usyk
