Daniel Dubois

Daniel Dubois is a professional boxer who competes in the Heavyweight division, and is believed to be one of the most exciting young prospects in the sport.

Born in Greenwich, London on 6th September 1997, Dubois got into boxing at the age of nine due to his father’s attempts to steer him away from trouble in South London. He had 75 fights as an amateur, winning two English schoolboy titles. He was selected for the Great Britain Olympic team with the chance to compete at Tokyo in 2020. But Dubois opted to turn professional instead despite only taking part in a handful of senior bouts.

The Englishman made his debut in April 2017 against Marcus Kelly, and made an instant impact on the division after knocking him out in just 35 seconds of the first round. He would go on to become English Heavyweight champion after just eight fights. Dubois also picked up the WBO International and Commonwealth titles just after his victory against Nathan Gorman in July and went on to make two successful defences of the belts.

However, Dubois would lose his titles after being defeated by Joe Joyce in his last fight back in November 2020, which was the result of a damaged eye socket that left him unable to continue. To date, this has been the only defeat of his career but is still hugely respected in the boxing community.
