“IT’S MY JOB TO GO OUT THERE AND OFFSET WHAT HE’S GOING TO BRING AND FOLLOW MY GAME PLAN!”
Joseph Parker’s On The Same Page As Ex World Champion-
Ex Cruiserweight Champion Tony Bellew seems to agree with Joseph Parker.
“I just think Joe Parker comes out, sticks a hard jab on him, lands a few hard shots early doors, I think he takes over the fight and just wins at a canter. But if he allows Daniel Dubois to gain any kind of confidence and get on top of him, he’s had it. He’s literally had it. He’s a strong boy, Daniel Dubois, but he’s very tunnel visioned. “
Bellew believes Dubois can be very bullish but reckless.
“He doesn’t see the peripheral thing around him. He’s tunnel visioned. He’s straight ahead, going for you. And he’s balls in.”
The two will battle it out for the IBF title on February 22nd after the WBO concluded that Joseph Parker’s status as interim champion will be revoked after the bell starts.
