Hard to say what the winning bid will be here…? 10 ish million?
Re: Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois - WBA Mandatory
At the least I would have thought. They will charge PPV for it, as they do on anything half decent, and it is only half decent.gregregegg wrote: ↑16 May 2023, 15:31 Hard to say what the winning bid will be here…? 10 ish million?

Was Chisora with Don Charles when he pushed Usyk all the way?

Chisora preferred to be trained by MMA guys from London Shootfighters, ahead of Don Charles..
How Don has landed this gig with Dubois is beyond me- Daniels father is an absolute fool.
Even Florian Marku ditched him after 1 or possibly 2 fights because he was out of his depth.

Re: Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois - WBA Mandatory
I'd not have much confidence in a trainer talking the way he is about Dubois' chances. Jesus. At the very least, you've got to instill belief in your fighter than they can find a way to take Usyk out of his stride.Manchester Hitman wrote: ↑22 May 2023, 07:56Chisora preferred to be trained by MMA guys from London Shootfighters, ahead of Don Charles..

Re: Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois - WBA Mandatory
Has he split from McGuigan? I know he had gone from Martin Bowers, then Mark Tibbs.
Also I think he had gone to a number of amateur clubs. Is he still managed by Bowers?

Martin Bowers is a better trainer and has a far superior set up than Charles. It’s all really bizzaremaverick23 wrote: ↑23 May 2023, 01:56Still managed by Bowers but trained by Don Charles now after leaving Shane.

Agreed. I didn’t think Bowers came across well during the Joyce fight though and I actually thought Shane was a near perfect fit for him.Manchester Hitman wrote: ↑23 May 2023, 15:13Martin Bowers is a better trainer and has a far superior set up than Charles.

Strange.
