Dubois vs Joyce: Fight date, live stream, TV info, and undercard for best of British heavyweight clash at the O2
BRACE yourself for a best of British heavyweight showdown.
Joe Joyce and Daniel Dubois are all set to go to war in one of the biggest domestic dust-ups in years, with both fighters putting their unbeaten records on the line.
DDD’s promoter Frank Warren says matching his fighter against Joyce is ‘the biggest risk of his career’, especially as Joyce has 12 years more experience under his belt.
The Olympic star, 34, is one of the finest amateur boxers this country has ever produced, while Dynamite is a 22-year-old knockout machine with a perfect 14-0 record.

Dubois has fought here twice before, beating Nathan Gorman and Tom Little by KO.
While the Juggernaut has walked out at the O2 three times, most recently dismantling Bryant Jennings in July 2019.
Fight night is set for Saturday, April 11.
Which TV channel and live stream can I watch it on?
IN the UK, the fight will be shown on BT Sport Box Office.
And US viewers will be able to enjoy the action too on ESPN+.

Who else is fighting on the card?
CURRENTLY the undercard hasn’t been confirmed for this showdown in the capital.
But expect plenty of British talent to be on show before the main event.
Dubois is a headline star at the age of just 22 and topped the bill when he gave Japanese fighter Kyotaro Fujimoto a boxing lesson back in December.
On that card were prospects Liam Williams, Tommy Fury and Archie Sharp.
What they said
Frank Warren: “For Daniel it’s a quite a jump up – to be fighting at this stage of his career in such a significant fight, so it’s a big decision to make.
“I am not worried about Daniel’s stamina. My only concern if I have one is Joe’s vast experience – how long he has been boxing. And he’s undefeated, a winning fighter.
“Joe is 34, had a significant and highly decorated amateur career, has vast experience and has done brilliantly as a pro. So it’s a big step up for Daniel. It’s a fight he wants. I think the fight will happen sooner rather than later.”
