Dubois vs Parker: the favorite of the fight between the main contenders for Usyk's titles has been named

The British champion according to the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Daniel Dubois (22-0, 21 KOs) is considered the favorite to face Joseph Parker (35-3, 23 KOs) from New Zealand. The main contenders for the fight against Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs) will meet in the ring on February 22 in Riyadh.

Analysts believe that Dubois' chances of winning look better. Bets on the British triumph are accepted at odds of 1.40. The draw is estimated at 26.00. And the odds on Parker's success reach 2.75.

Experts also doubt that the fight will go the full 12 rounds. The corresponding event is offered at 1.50.

You can bet on Dubois to win by knockout at odds of 1.73. Parker's early success is estimated at 7.50.

It should be noted that the Briton had already challenged Usyk when he appeared in the ring after the Ukrainian's victory in a rematch over Tyson Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs). Daniel later explained his action.

It will be recalled that Usyk defeated Dubois by TKO in the ninth round in August 2023, and the Briton was punished with a dirty punch below the belt.

Manager Egis Klimas told us when Oleksandr plans to return to the ring after the rematch with Fury. Artificial intelligence has already predicted the Ukrainian's fight.

Earlier it became known that Usyk may give up one of the championship belts to return to the ring of the legendary Wladimir Klitschko (64-5-0-1, 54 KOs).
