Because IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois has withdrawn from a title defense in Riyadh on Saturday night, Joseph Parker has turned his attention to fighting replacement Martin Bakole.

Martin Bakole will hope to complete a truly remarkable few days by upsetting Joseph Parker in their heavyweight fight in Riyadh tonight.The hard-hitting Congolese heavyweight has stepped in at very late notice to replace Daniel Dubois,

Bakole had garnered the label of "the boogeyman of the heavyweight division," with his power, size and ability to walk down opponents leading to trouble finding opponents. To Parker's credit, he jumped at the chance to face Bakole after Dubois pulled out of the bout, taking the IBF heavyweight title with him.
