Parker, who heads to the Kingdom Arena next February, has come a long way again from the man whose career seemed to be on the rocks after a loss to Joe Joyce in 2022.

Speaking ahead of his date with Dubois now, he has explained what has changed in his world since then, and how he believes that can help him succeed as he bids for history.

"I feel like the difference between Joseph Parker then and now is that I’m a lot more mature," he told DAZN's The Ariel x Ade Show. "I appreciate the position that I’m in.

"I’m grateful for the opportunities that I get. Now, I feel like I live the life and that there is purpose behind everything I do. There’s a lot more motivation, and a lot more discipline.

"I’m fighting more for myself, personally, and my wife and my kids. I feel like I’m a better boxer, a better father and a better husband. That makes me content. I’m happy."

Since losing to Joyce, Parker has recorded a string of impressive wins, with back-to-back victories over Deontay Wilder and Zhilei Zhang key to his remarkable revival.

Dubois meanwhile ascended to the IBF title after Oleksandr Usyk was forced to abdicate it, and legitimised his position with a brutal fifth-round stoppage against Anthony Joshua.
