Dubois-Joyce Heavyweight Showdown to Stream Live in the U.S. on ESPN+

The highly anticipated all-British heavyweight
showdown between British and Commonwealth champion Daniel “Dynamite” Dubois
and Joe “Juggernaut” Joyce — Saturday, Nov. 28 in London— has an American
broadcast home.

Dubois-Joyce and unbeaten junior middleweight Hamzah Sheeraz against
veteran Guido Nicolas Pitto will stream live on ESPN+ beginning at 5 p.m.
ET/2 p.m. PT, with a full slate of undercard contests (including the return
of WBO No. 1 junior welterweight contender Jack Catterall) on ESPN+
starting at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT.

The 12-round heavyweight main event will also be contested for the vacant
European title.

“The future of the heavyweight division will be seen live on
ESPN+ Nov. 28,” said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum. “Daniel Dubois is a
tremendous young fighter, but Joe is older and had an incredibly successful
amateur career. I am glad that American fight fans will have an outlet to
watch one of the year’s best fights.”

Dubois (15-0, 14 KOs), winner of six in a row by KO, is no stranger to
American fight fans, as his last eight bouts have streamed live on ESPN+.
He went 5-0 in 2019, including a second-round stoppage over former world
title challenger Razvan Cojanu, a fifth-round KO over fellow prospect
Nathan Gorman and a second-round blitzing of Kyotaro Fujimoto last
December. He made his 2020 debut Aug. 29 and knocked out Ricardo Snijders
in the second round.

The 35-year-old Joyce (11-0, 10 KOs) turned pro in October 2017 after
capturing a super heavyweight silver medal for Great Britain at the 2016
Rio Olympics. He wasted no time as a professional, as he won Commonwealth
honors in only his fourth bout. In 2019, he knocked out former world
champion Bermane Stiverne in six rounds and veteran gatekeeper Alexander
Ustinov in three rounds to increase his knockout streak to nine. In July
2019, he went the 12-round distance and outworked former world title
challenger Bryant Jennings over 12 rounds. He returned to action July 25
and knocked down Michael Wallisch three times en route to a third-round
stoppage.
