Regular WBA Heavyweight Champion Daniel Dubois (18-1, 17 KOs) will fight Kevin Lerena (28-1, 14 KOs) on December 3 on the undercard of Tyson Fury vs Derek Chisora III. Before this fight, the Briton raised several topics in an interview with SecondsOut, talking about his approach to the December fight, his success in the ring and former sparring with Tyson Fury.
“Kevin Lerena is a strong test, a really good opponent. But I have to destroy it, that's my goal, that's all I'm focused on. I have to be dynamic and do my thing. I'm on a different level now than when I lost the fight to Joe Joyce. I am 25 and I am growing up. My coach Shane McGuigan gives me trouble and he's great at tactics," DuBois said.
“I learned to put my whole body into punches, use my hips and legs when punching. After the collision with Lerena, big fights await me. I'm betting Tyson Fury will beat Oleksandr Usyk in an all belt fight, so I think I'll end up fighting Fury as a contender. I will prepare as much as possible and knock him out. I sparred with him once, but only lasted one round with him."
“I knocked out Hughie Fury, Tyson's brother, in sparring. Then Tyson entered the ring, and we had a sparring match. It was one round, but I felt that Fury was very uncomfortable. Then, however, I was still too young, ”added Dubois.
