Daniel Dubois racked up another professional victory over the weekend as he defeated Trevor Bryan on Don King's latest show.
Dubois travelled to America and, after a fearless opening round, finished his opponent in the fourth. The clash was for the WBA (Regular) Heavyweight Championship.
In a post-fight interview, Dubois was asked who he wants to face next. His trainer, Shane McGuigan, suggested Dillian Whyte as a potential opponent. Dubois responded:
“Oh yeah, definitely, bring them all on. I’m ready... Dillian Whyte, Joseph Parker, all the names out there, they’re all on my hit list.”

Following Dillian Whyte's recent defeat to WBC Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury, he may look to challenge Dubois in an all-British showdown. With Whyte recently failing to become world champion, he will likely look to rectify his mistakes.
Dubois could also face Joseph Parker, who is expected to face Joe Joyce in a fight that has now been rearranged for September. Parker's next fight will come at an incovenient time for the Brit, who will want to stay active in the ring. However, they may share the ring later down the line.
Another potential clash could come against the winner of Derek Chisora and Kubrat Pulev, who will headline the O2 Arena on July 9. The verterans could prove to be adequate tests for Dubois in his quest to top the heavyweight rankings.
With this heavyweight showdown set to take place in less than a month's time, Dubois will surely keep his eyes on the winner.
