WHO will Daniel Dubois fight when he returns early next year?
Promoter Frank Warren has made it clear that his IBF heavyweight champion will make the second defence of his title in February.
The IBF will allow Dubois to take an optional defence for his next fight and we now know that the Anthony Joshua rematch will not happen. What we do know is Dubois will face someone from the IBF top 15. There is time for some surprise entrants, however, with the rankings getting monthly updates.
Number 12 contender Fabio Wardley will have to wait as his promoter (Warren) believes it’s too early for his new signing. The top two slots are vacant, while the number three and four contenders – Agit Kabayel and Martin Bakole – have been put forward for an eliminator.
So, who could be next for ‘Dynamite’ Dubois? Boxing News presents five possible options.
