Daniel Dubois

[Boxing Prospect]

Nothing wrong with Petrov, but that SHOULD be the standard defense for Flanagan. The likes of Cruz and Fana were a fornicating disgrace.

Yeh agree on that, Fana and Cruz were woeful choices. Here's hoping a win on Sat pushes Terry onto a big fight against Linares or Easter Jr.

[Stuffs]

Wasn't Fana was supposed to be a tick over prior to Verdejo, who then bollocksed himself. Then Cruz the same and now it's off again?

I wouldn't place too much fault at Flanagan and his team's feet for it.

If they go softer after Petrov then maybe. I'm giving a pass for now though.

I think Fana was originally scheduled for the Fury vs. Klitschko bill, I remember FW saying he doesn't want to pay for a top class opponent on another promoter's show, fair one, I guess.

Not sure on Cruz but it could be, I know Flanagan was a relatively late addition to the Cardiff bill.

True, Fana was gonna be on Fury v Klitschko. And I agree with not spending big bucks on someone else's show. I think both were very soft picks, but with the intention of fighting Verdejo in the first half of this year, which it seems now isn't happening.

I think what they do after Petrov will show whether they're all talk and no trousers or not.

1st round K.O Dubois.

[Stuffs]

Looks like a change of opponent for Dubois, or Boxrec is wrong as it's showing him against fellow novice Marcus Kelly (1-0).

Just spotted that, shame the Howe fight fell through. Guess it could be made for the Walsh Davis card.

Everyone's undefeated when they haven't had a pro fight..... including the unbeaten Adam Smith

Hearing Howe pulled out ?

This fight hasn't got much press

[Fitzy901]

The guy he is fighting looks about 5ft 8 and a kebab monster. Genuinely worried for his health.

Not yet...

Maybe this lad will end up being the next Michael Smyth or Jim Twite?

To be fair, having looked through some footage of him, Connal looks talented

[Fortynineandout]

I was at the weigh in yesterday and along with others found a source of amusement at the apparent mismatch when Dubois did the head to head / face off with his opponent.
Good luck to Marcus Kelly from Cornwall who in fairness has won his only fight.
I know looks can be deceptive but Dubois simply dwarfed over him and it just didn't look right .
The comedy continued with Jordon Thompsons opponent and members of the crowd were actually laughing on this occasion . It looked as if he had been dragged into the venue off the streets via the local homeless shelter ! Again it just didn't look right and on the face of it a truly blatant mismatch . His opponent is a Latvian with just 80 losses ! .

[Controversial]

He's a big lump for a 19 year old isn't he. One to keep an eye on for sure. Interesting comment from Bunce that he done exceptionally well when sparring AJ and he had to be careful what he said or the lawyers would be after him.

[Stuarty]

He was fighting Johnny Vegas's fuckin stunt double!

The rumour was he Kod the humble monster.... you're never quite sure what to believe though - Laurence Okiole, David Price are also meant to have ko'd the humble one. AJ Seems to morph into Amir Khan every time he spars (having said that all the above can punch.)

It does seem like there's a new rumour of him being chinned by a sparring partner every other week

All true

It's what keeps him grounded and humble

Aside from that momentary wobble against Whyte, his chin has held up well in actual fights where it matters.

Im not really that fussed if he's getting chinned in sparring. Its better to get knocked out there than in actual fights i guess.

Usual cobblers from blow hard Bunce, bigging up his boss's new signing, if it was the other way round or AJ wasn't match room he'd not be mentioning rumours.
