Daniel Dubois vs Razvan Cojanu

[skanksta]

Cojanu is in the best shape he's been for ages.
Parker and Gorman couldn't knock him out - a KO here would be a decent result.

[oogiebe]

Cojanu in 1 in a big upset

LMAO! You're a pip!

Wouldn't be the worse bet if Cojanu threw a punch ever - he's huge.

Yeah, over 260 LBS and in pretty good shape. Dubois will take him out I suspect.

[skanksta]

I'm almost tempted, but Cojanu is classic sparring partner - content to clown and spoil and go the the distance is his victory.

[skanksta]

Woudn't it be better to back Raz to win @ 31/1 ?

Why not take a flier on both? Hedge with Dubois Dec win.

[skanksta]

I just can't see Raz going for it.
He's much more likely to outlast DDD and KO him late than he is to come out swinging.

Dubois will come out going for it early, as I think he has something to prove. He'll make a statement in this one, IMHO.

raz is nothing but a spoiler vs anyone decent

Yup. One of those guys that it's difficult to look good against. I just believe Dubois is ready to show us something.

[Coco]

Dubois needs rounds and even another ugly performance will serve him much better than looking good.

Fair point, but if he shows some new wrinkles in his game, it would better allow him to step up in his next fight with some confidence.

[knockout]

Răzvan has got himself in much better shape than I have seen for a few years , he knows how to mess around and survive .. I think a points win for DDD

[handsofstone]

Stunning finish from Dubois, some questionable body work but nothing wrong with the left hook/right hand to KO Cojanu, Dubois looked like he was still finding his timing in the early goings working the jab, missing when loading up and Cojanu landed a couple of counters, quality KO though and a bit of a statement, still raw though Dubois you can see that much

Well, he made a statement alright! This could be considered DDD's coming out party. Strong statement!

[oogiebe]

Dubois went to the body and came up with a terrific left hook. Haven't seen him do that before with any success. I'm impressed.

Really I thought he looked basic

I'm comparing his progress. He's still young and needs good in-ring experience and development.

[leejonesjnr]

Not really all that important but I always find it a little irritating when the wrong belt is presented.
He won the WBO European title last night but was presented with the Intercontinental belt.

[Coco]

Also when interviewed he was congratulated on winning the European title!!
Obv she doesn't know anything about boxing, but at least she should learn her lines better

[jamamb]

pretty sure ive seen press relaeses to where wbo euro champs are simply referred to as euro champs, i think it was another warren fighter too? they are defo trying to keep it in there

[DrDuke]

I thought, spoiler Cojanu would be able to make that at least longer. After locking Cojanu on the ropes Dubois landed a great combo changing levels.

[Pukka Cheese]

BT were quick to upload the fight if anyone missed it.



Great finish from Big D.
Frank needs to get him out again ASAP.
