Fair enough on who is #2. It’s close and a preference thing - do you prefer Miller-Hrgovic-Joshua, Makhmudov-Sanchez-Zhang or Wilder-Zhang-Bakole. Dubois has the stripped belt and absolutely destroyed the washed yet still weirdly marquee guy so that makes it more of an event for the punters. Even if we know how it will likely end again

Usyk/Parker is the fight to make. Have DDD fight Kabayel in the meantime.
Usyk would've faced him.
The British Cash Cows have been winning.

Any combination of him against Parker, DDD or Kabayel should be fine. Unification and a rematch to clear the first fight up will sell better.

I'd prefer Usyk/Parker but thats good too.
I think when theres fresh dangerous challengers out there they should be prioritized over rematches.
You can't "duck" a fighter with no belt to unify with another champion.
I would prefer to see Parker vs Usyk because it's fresh but Usyk vs Dubois will make more money and they both have belts so I imagine that's what we will get.

I actually think Parker v ddd was a good fight why not stick with that? Pulling out of fight last minute is bad, but as long as you reschedule it, no harm done, we won't hold grudge.
