DANIEL DUBOIS has plenty of options for his next fight after pulling out of his bout with Joseph Parker, according to Frank Warren.
The promoter wants to see him rematch Oleksandr Usyk, having lost to the heavyweight world champion in August 2023.

But there are multiple options on the table for Dubois, including a showdown with Parker.
Dubois withdrew from the fight in Saudi Arabia after being declared medically unfit following sickness.
However he is expected to return to the ring in the next three months and Warren believes his withdrawal presents more opportunities in terms of his next opponent.
He told Sky Sports: “I feel the perverse thing out of it is we’ve got more of an option now.
“I’d like to see the rematch with Usyk. That’s an option, if it can be done I’d love that.
“But then we’ve got Joe Parker, we’ve got AJ, who’s got over his injury and he may want to do it now with the fact he’s been ill, who knows?”
Joshua and Usyk will be in attendance for Parker’s fight against Martin Bakole, who stepped up as a late replacement for Dubois.
Warren expects to talk to the two boxers and their teams about a potential fight with Dubois.

He continued: “We’ll have a look and see. They’re all here. No doubt we’ll look and have a chat.
“That’s all we do. This is a gathering of the clans. Sit down and have a chat and see what’s going on.”
Joshua could be a frontrunner to face Dubois after his promoter Eddie Hearn revealed he is keen for a rematch.
Hearn told Sky Sports: “That’s what AJ wants. He wants to fight for the world heavyweight title. So that’s the number one priority.
“At this stage he’s about trying to become a three-time world heavyweight champion. He missed out on that opportunity last time and he’d love another crack.”
