I genuinely worry for DDD's health. Usyk is about nine levels higher.
lol that’s over the top. Dubois is at least on Chisoras
Level
I'm 100% serious. DDD took a real beating off Joyce and I don't know if you've noticed, but those fights aren't good for your health. Another beating is incoming and it won't be good for Daniel's health.
He didn’t take a bad bearing. Many fighters have taken a beating way worse and come back. Barrera for one example. Look Frank Smith, we know that you deliberately attack every Warren show, maybe you can have a flame war with Dev Sahni who also posts here

He didn’t take a beating off Joyce. He got peppered with jabs, which busted his eye, but Joyce wasn’t teeing off with power shots or working him over.
He took a sustained beating. A clean jab off guy Joyce's size can do an awful lot of damage,

Dev is annoying, but It’s not that serious pal.. That is exactly the thought process that Dubois needs to take to approach this fight - “he’s old and small, let’s get on him”. Otherwise the sheer size of the occasion/the task at hand, could lead to him losing the fight before the first bell.
Press Release | Ziyad Almaayouf To See Action on Undercard
Undefeated super lightweight prospect Ziyad "Zizo" Almaayouf (3-0, 1 KO) is excited to step back into the ring as he awaits his upcoming bout against Janos Penzes (2-4, 1 KO) of Budapest, Hungary.

Speaking to Dev Sahni for The Lowdown, Usyk is told people thought Chisora had more success than anyone against him.
“Let people watch my fight with Derek Chisora and think what they used to think.”
Sahni then put forward the theory that Usyk had ‘played possum’ against Chisora with a view to luring in Joshua for the pair’s first big money fight in Jeddah. He was asked if there was any truth in that.
“Yes, this is true.”
Chisora employed an all-out attack plan against the Ukrainian, and certainly delivered some heavyweight pressure in the early stages.

I would think that this fight we are going to see Usyk , really give it his all , he will want to make a statement , saying AJ was no style issue i really am that good , and Fury best watch out , its not rocket science to assume that Warren really wanted this fight hoping for a lucky punch then Fury fights DD if he landed it easy win for Fury ,
By sending out a statement stopping DD early Usyk will really have cemented his claim to be the best and it will be up to Fury to fight him or piss off . hopefully he fights him then gets pissed off , even if he never wanted to fight Usyk for whatever reason , theres still Joyce , Zang and others he could off fought at leat they would of been interesting regarles up you think wins
In a recent interview with Boxing News, Price admits he feels it will simply prove too tall a task for the young Brit.
“I can’t see Dubois winning, no. I think Usyk will find it too easy to land on him. Attack will be Dubois’ best form of defence, but I don’t think he’s got what it takes to land clean and often on Usyk.
Usyk will be too busy and too mobile. I think he’ll land often on Dubois and will actually stop him late. It’s a massive opportunity for the lad and he’s done great to come back from where he was after the Joe Joyce defeat, so good for him.
I just think Usyk is on that next level, and we haven’t seen anything to suggest he’s starting to fade – he’s getting better all the time.
But it’s a great occasion for Dubois, and as long as he goes in there and gives it his best, he can come out a winner. Good luck to him!”
Can't see anything other than a Usyk early blowout, Dubois carries enough power to suggest Usyk won't muck about, Dubois hasn't got enough dog to compete at this level, it's a gross mismatch
I’ve not bothered looking at the industry expert picks because they’ll be 100% for the champion, no doubts.
Still, it’s a can’t miss fight. It’s a great champion coming up against a young hard-hitting, hugely ambitious contender. Is it Mission impossible? how does triple D win? Good question…well obviously he’s got to jump all over the seemingly invincible champion. A lot of people are calling this a mismatch, maybe rightly so, but don’t forget DD is bigger and surely much the harder puncher. And I reckon his chin ain’t bad, at least against a cruiserweight.
So he’s gonna have to turn this into a wild roughhousing brawl, and try and win that way.
I mean he hits pretty damn hard. Imagine him catching the champion on the temple or top of the head with one of those huge swings. It could happen, and things might get very interesting for the homecoming king.
