Two red hot, up-and-coming British heavyweights are facing off April 11.

Daniel Dubois (14-0, 13 KO) vs Joe Joyce (10-9, KO)

Real Praise: Credit both teams for taking this fight because we don't often see two surging, unbeaten fighters face each other during their ascent through the ranks. Sure, we see unbeaten fighters already at the top of their divisions go head to head, but we seldom see two up-and-comers and potential stars take that massive risk against each other.

Match-ups like these are "what's right with boxing."

U.S. Broadcast: The Dubois vs Joyce fight card will be broadcast on ESPN Plus in the U.S.

Big Questions / Key TakeawaysBig Questions / Key Takeaways

Biggest Win - Joyce's win over Bryant Jennings serves as the biggest accomplishment by either fighter
Most Impressive Performance: Dubois's stoppage of Nathan Gorman is arguably the most impressive performance by either fighter.
It's that pedigree - Many who favor Joyce cite his more extensive amateur pedigree and relentlessness.
No, it's the power: Those who favor Daniel like his explosiveness. They also like Daniel's combinations and versatility; Dubois backers think Joyce is a bit slow and plotty.
Survival: Some inist the longer it goes the more it favors Joyce. Dubois is a fast starter but Joe's experience could rise to the fore should it go past 6. Will we see that "separation in class" in this fight?
Title shot: Dubois is already ranked No 3 by the WBO; Will the winner be ready for an immediate title shot?

Dubois vs Joyce Predictions and OddsDubois vs Joyce Predictions and Odds

Joyce vs Dubois Odds (as of February 1)

Not surprisingly, Daniel Dubois is the clear pick in this one... Fox Bet likes Dubois (-400) over Joyce (+275). Odds on a draw are +2500.

Odds methodology

Aesthetics: Daniel Dubois, from a visual standpoint, looks to be the stronger, more versatile of the two. He also looks a tad quicker, more threatening and has a prettier style.
Age: Bettors might also be considering the age difference as Joyce is 34 while Dubois is only 22. However, it seems many heavyweights aren't peaking until their early to mid 30s today anyway. Experts shouldn't take age into consideration, especially because Joyce is a fresh 34. He's not Chris Arreola or Shannon Briggs at the same age. In fact, the age difference could be to Joyce's benefit because he's probably the more mature, more composed of the two.
Momentum: Dubois has generated more momentum to this point and will be the slight A-side. Hence, he's more likely to win a close fight should it go to the scorecards.

Nathan Gorman: Daniel's recent drubbing of young prospect Nathan Gorman, then undefeated, elevated the former's status in the eyes of many. Daniel performed as an elite heavyweight would have been expected that evening.

Dubois vs Joyce predictions:

Mark Neilson
Professional Boxing Promoter
British Boxing News

"Both are of similar ability and both have KO power. Joyce has faced much better quality opposition so far and has better amateur experience. Not sure that will be a factor in this fight. With their styles and how they both come forward, it’s probably down to who lands clean first."

Ryan Walsh
British featherweight champion
British Boxing News

..."I’m going Daniel Dubois, he has the greater fundamentals. Joe will certainly be Daniel's biggest test and stretch the younger champion, although I see a late Dubois KO 9-11."

"Joyce only seems to have one gear and one way and that will suit Daniel who eventually will land something which due to Joyce’s style will make it far worse...Joe doesn’t retreat much so this has all the hallmarks of an absolute classic all-British heavyweight fight with two rising stars. Great for boxing and great to see!""

Matt Stanton
Assistant Coach, West Thurrock Boxing
British Boxing News

"I found it very interesting that Dubois thought that Joyce’s only advantage over him was experience- in my opinion, if Joyce can negate, or just handle, Dubois’ power, the experience will be what counts."

"I think Dubois’ experienced team wouldn’t have taken this fight without good reason, something suggests to me that the decision from the Joyce side may have been a little more gung-ho."

"My prediction though is for Joyce to nick a tight win over the distance."

Daniel Dubois: 'I'm going to put you to sleep, bring your sleeping bag,' Daniel said on Good Morning Britain. 'I need this fight, I've been waiting a long time for this fight."

"This will be the fight that announces me to the world. I think I'm better than Joe in every department; better jab, movement, more power. The only thing Joe has over me is experience."

Joe Joyce: "This is a massive fight, there's no denying that there's a lot on the line on both sides but experience is something you can't buy and I've got tonnes of it and I believe it'll play a huge factor in this fight." (Courtesy Daily Mail)

Promoter Frank Warren: "Daniel Dubois taking on Joe Joyce at this stage of his career is one of my biggest gambles as a promoter.... But I don’t take a risk I’m not confident will be a success."

Promoter 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."

Promoter Frank Warren: "At 22 he [Daniel Dubois] is also only a baby in the heavyweight division so I expect when he does get his hands on world titles then a decade of dominance could be on the cards...

But first he must beat Joyce who is a dangerous puncher with a granite chin and a terrific engine."
