New Zealand super featherweight Joseph Parker has commented on the withdrawal of IBF world champion Daniel Dubois from their bout.

Yesterday it became known that the Briton caught a viral infection and was not allowed to fight. He will be replaced by Congolese Martin Bakole.

"In life, all sorts of things happen. Not just in boxing - in life in general. You have to adapt and move forward no matter what circumstances. I want to move forward and I hope Daniel gets better soon," Dubois said in an interview with Boxing News YouTube channel.
