The WBO has already appointed the Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk’s next opponent – Joseph Parker.
Promoter Frank Warren announced this immediately after the Usyk-Dubois fight.
“Usyk is a legend of our time, he is an incredible fighter. In any generation he would be big. I take my hat off to him today. Daniel was ready for this fight, he trained hard. But no complaints, no excuses, because today the better man won – an outstanding champion. The WBO has already obliged Usyk,” Warren said.
Let us recall that on the night of July 20, a rematch between Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk and Briton Daniel Dubois took place at London’s Wembley Stadium, during which the Ukrainian won an absolute victory.
