That’s a bold prediction, and very much in the distant future. 5 year prediction? Lot of variables.

What fight were YOU watching? :roll:

Dubois is clearly the better boxer. It is Gorman who is the crude brawler and he obviously didnt belong in the ring with Dubois. DDD showed great patience in using his boxing skills instead of punching himself out and the KO came.
Dubois didn't do anything special. He takes a good shot and puts out 2 straight punches against a wide looper who turns his head away from the target. That doesn't make too much of slow footed, low output, dull defense Dubois. Skills are skills regardless of weight class. Our eyes do not deceive us. Dubois is simple; he was just more effective against a brawler.

That's a terrible prediction. But one I'd take you up on any day. The finest heavyweight alive vs an unproven two-punch puncher.

A good fight. Dubois predictably (but surprisingly not for many) crushed Gorman. Although Gorman should be given a credit, he fought back as much as he could.

He did, but alas he was nowhere near as elusive as either of those two other comparative light hitters Fury or Saunders - and he needed to be. As he said afterwards, he's got things to work on. Plenty of things.

As for Daniel Dubois, that was a career best performance. He held the centre of the ring well, remained patient and seemed unfazed by whatever Gorman tried.

Definitely one to watch.
