As previously reported by BoxingScene.com, unbeaten pair Daniel Dubois and Nathan Gorman will meet for the vacant British heavyweight title on July 13.

The fight will take place at London’s O2, with the card also featuring Olympic silver medallist Joe Joyce.

“I am very confident that I can knock anyone in the world out right now,” said Greenwich-born Dubois, 21, who has won 10 of his 11 fights inside the distance. I would have fought Joe Joyce and now I will fight Gorman.”

Gorman, 22, has an unblemished 16-fight record with 11 of those wins coming by knockout.

Back in the amateur days, Gorman explains that in the past they sparred against each other and he was able to dominate the action against Dubois.

Now he's confident of being able to handle him in the pros.

“We were on the GB squad for two years together and we did 200 or 300 rounds sparring and I don’t think I lost one," Gorman said.

"He thinks I’m his easiest opponent so far, but I bring a lot more than all the other opponents he has fought. They have just wanted to get the payday and go home. I want to win and be British heavyweight champion.

"If me being his easiest fight is motivation fair play. I’m not and he knows it. This isn’t going to points and I am trying for the KO. I am the underdog and people might say I will get knocked out, but we’ll see. The all-time greats have been boxers and I have a boxing brain.

"Some great names have won the British title and it will be the greatest moment in my boxing life to win it at the o2 Arena. I’m not sure if Daniel if Frank’s golden goose, but after July 13 I will be his number one boy.”
