DANIEL DUBOIS has made it possible to fight Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora - but only after he imitated his idol Mike Tyson's US debut.
On August 29, the heavyweight contender will make his debut to the American market as he appears on Jake Paul's Undercard.
Daniel Dubois is now open to fighting Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora
Dubois, 23 years old, takes on American Joe Cusumano (33 years old), who is 19-3 with 17 knockouts, and has never been stopped.
Frank Warren, a promoter from Britain, has taken British boxing icons like Prince 'Naseem' Hamed and Ricky Hatton all Stateside.
Now it's Dubois who will take the stage, hoping to be as successful as Tyson was in his dazzling heyday.
Dubois reflected on his heroes growing-up and said, "My No1 was Mike Tyson."
"Lennox Lewis and Naseem, all the major names, they all went there, Joe Calzaghe."
"It's going be a new crowd, a new audience, and the YouTube scene will be different. It's a great opportunity and I am grateful."
Dubois's unbeaten record was broken by Joe Joyce, 35, a domestic rival. Joe brilliantly jabbed his route to a round 11 win.
The hard-hitting Londoner won against Bogdan Dinu (34), in June. This win earned him the WBA interim belt.
He is now primed to defend Anthony Joshua's title against Oleksandr Usyk (35), on September 25.
While Tyson Fury (32), faces Deontay wilder (35) in a tri-fight on October 9, the division will still be held.
Dubois is left with the task of keeping Dubois busy, and he has two British stars to help him.
He stated, "The lines are long and everyone is waiting."
"It's about getting in position to fight some big fights. People will talk about it.
"I am only 23 years old, but I am still learning, improving, and rebuilding myself."
"I would like to fight for a good, decent name. Derek Chisora and Dillian Whyte are just a few of the many guys out there. Perhaps two more fights and then a major fight.
Warren, Hall of Fame promoter, has also been eyeing Trevor Bryan's secondary WBA "Regular" title for Dubois if he succeeds across the pond.
Warren stated, "I want him fight for the WBA title against Trvor Brant. I'd get that on in my heartbeat."
"He passes through this, that's what I want to do."
