I got an accumulator on Dinu, the bloke Tommy Fury is fighting and Kevin Johnson (v Kabayel) at 998-1. Wish me luck!
Pretty awesome if it came though - how much did you put on?
A pound, I'm the last of the big spenders
I put a couple of pounds on he individual fights, just to keep me interested.
Well a grand wouldn't be bad! Obviously its unlikely it'll come through but to be fair, Dinu is in decent shape, big and dubois is coming back from a loss, Johnson also looks in decent shape and Tommy's guy will try and win..... I may put a quid on myself lol
Forget the Joyce rematch for me. Go after Helenius for the big bad GOLD variant of the WBA… clean ‘em up!
Seriously wouldn’t be a hard fight to make and it would probably be some kind of preliminary eliminator for a real title fight… that might be 4/5 fights away if… big if… Daniel keeps winning.

Waiting for Helenius to rematch Kownacki
Fair enough…
I had Dubois 4/5 up against Joyce so even if Dubois was to knock him out I don’t think it would erase the memory of the first fight… I think sadly Daniel will have that lingering over him for quite some time so I don’t see the need for the rematch.
Martin or Pulev next? Big step up but both fighters would come over here and would be an interesting move. A win against either of those gets Dubois ranked top 15 in all associations you’d imagine.
A bit too early for sink or swim at 23 years old but Dubois will learn nothing knocking out people like Dinu who got flattened with a decent, but not lethal, right hand.
didnt he win the interim WBA reg title? so surely whats next is fighting for the real WBA reg title, although that would reqquire WBA to understand how titles work and i guess we all know thats not true.

Frànk was suggesting that he could fight Trevor Bryan next for the regular title.

It’s just a bog standard interim belt. Not interim reg or anything.
Arreola is somehow 9 with the WBA so if its a WBA poundland belt related affair when DD comes back, that would tick a box and be worth watching. Just looked up the WBA rankings and it is truly shocking how Dinu was in at number two. Got to be one of the worst rankings in donkeys years.

Well I assume it’s not interim to AJ I assume it’s interim to Trevor, so might not be named interim reg, but that’s what it is really. (Unless he is fighting aj next...)
Dubois is one of those heavy handed bombers who could be caught between the devil and deep blue see !
Less than world class and the opponents can't cope with the power, but fully fledged contenders will probably turn him over every time, unless he can get a good few fights where he can become more seasoned and battle hardened.
Good to see him back in the ring and hope they keep him active.

It goes Interim, Regular, super.
When WBC or WBO have an interim, the champion usually gets a real shot within a year.
With the WBA, he’ll stay Interim champion for years if he wants to milk it. WBA don’t guarantee shït tbh.

Nice KO for Dubois with a pin point right hand.

not sure on that yet, it's not like he's already beaten the highest level of non-world class out there, and a lot of the opponents he's stopped are known to be fragile.
there are non top flight contenders who are better than anyone he's beaten, and certainly there are guys out there who are known to hold up better than the likes of dinu, cojanu, etc
helenius, bakole, takam...........try a guy like this. hughie fury too, though im loath to ever suggest him as an opponent for anyone cuz f@ck me he's a hard watch

Takam would be a perfect fight for him. I’d really enjoy the Bakole fight too.
