“My Money’s On Him” Derek Chisora Makes His Final Prediction For Daniel Dubois vs Joseph Parker: “My Money’s On Him”
Derek Chisora has tasted the punches of Joseph Parker and has now made a prediction ahead of his fight with Daniel Dubois.
‘Del Boy’ is just weeks away from his 49th fight, and it comes against former Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua opponent, Otto Wallin. Back in 2021, the British heavyweight veteran fought Parker twice
On their first meeting in May, Chisora lost by split decision after a close and entertaining battle across 12 rounds in which he scored a knockdown in the first round. Then, in September that year, the pair went at it again and this time Parker won wider, knocking down Chisora three times and taking a unanimous decision.
Since then Parker, a former WBO champion who lost his title to Anthony Joshua in 2018, has continued to climb up the ranks despite losing to Joe Joyce in 2022. He has beaten the likes of Jack Massey, Simon Kean, Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang to set up this IBF world title shot against current ruler Dubois.
Dubois has also put together a super run of wins – his last three victories have all come by way of stoppage over Jarrell Miller, Fillip Hrgovic and Joshua.
The pair square off on February 22 and Chisora has told Seconds Out he expects the younger man to win.
“My money is on Daniel. I believe he has got everything to stop Joseph Parker because he’s strong and he wants it more. He’s on a roll right now. There is nothing that can stop him right now.”
The winner of this fight will be well-placed to challenge unified heavyweight king Oleksandr Usyk in an undisputed fight sometime later this year.
