Are we getting closer? He's probably #1 again after this. Maybe with a win over Wilder or Kabayel?

I don't want to see Usyk-Dubois 3.

I'd sooner see Usyk fight Kabayel, or another contender.

Usyk destroyed him both times. Nobody want a trilogy. Riakporkhe or Okolie seems good to me. Kabayel probably waiting for Usyk and Wilder is shot. Or wait for Joshua - Fury winner, but that will take long time

I think Dubois vs Joseph Parker is a natural matchup to make. Or Dubois vs Kabayel

Itauma has talked about the result of this fight dictating what he decides to do next. I think he will.

While there might be a reason, because of how you see Usyk-Dubois I, it is not the time and probably will not be enough of it to do it - Kabayel is the one deserving a title shot. If it happens and Usyk loses, he will most probably think of a rematch with the Kurd, or aim at another boxer, which could be Dubois. If he wins, he can go for Daniel, but also another fighter.

This is the one we want the most.

3rd chance for that idiot Ben Davison to try to get his fighter to keep his hands up against the DDDD onslaught.

Dirty Dynamite Daniel Dubois is no stranger to using low blows and headbutts when things aren't going his way.

Triple knee is certainly a handful for anyone who can't move or use their jab to keep him at bay.

And it's not much good trying to "Roll the Dice" once you've already been concussed by his ramrod jab.

only the Jake Paul crowd would want Usyk 3. its a pointless waste of time.

heres my biased take following yesterdays fight.

i think Wardley has gone as far as he can. that kind of beating is more than enough. he should probably retire. it was a brave performance

as for Dubois, i think hes clearly the number 1 after the champion Usyk.

there are lots of really interesting fights to be made while Usyk finishes his bum of the month wrestling show and thinks about retirement.

Dubois v Kabayel A+
v Ajagba A
v Bakole A
v Torrez A+
v Jalolov B+
v Itauma A+

We've seen this movie twice and it always ends the same way.

We really don't need to see this again.

I'm sick of seeing Usyk beating the same three guys over and over.

When he's finished with this novelty bout, Usyk needs to be fighting Kabayel, plain and simple.

Dubois vs Fury
Dubois vs Kabayel
Dubois vs Itauma
Dubois vs Wilder
Dubois vs Chisora
Dubois Parker
Dubois vs Ajagba
Dubois vs Bakole
Dubois vs Hrgovic 2
Dubois vs Wardley 2
Usyk vs Kabayel
Usyk vs Itauma
Usyk vs Wilder
Usyk vs Torrez

All of those are better options for the fans. Usyk vs Dubois 3 would just be pointless. DId Dubois win 2 rounds in their 2 fights?

If Turki wants to lose money paying Usyk to fight Ngannou or Verhoeven or whoever else, it makes a non-financially credible opponent financially credible for Usyk. That's the problem when you have one guy picking and choosing what everyone does. Hopefully Turki decides Kabayel is his new favourite for a while.
Verhoeven would be a big money fight, and i personally would love it. I think it'd be a first to have a Boxing Heavyweight Champion and Kickboxing Heavyweight Champion fight. It'd be an interesting event and Verhoeven I guarantee would hold his own.
Verhoeven gets KO'd in boxing, KO's Usyk in kickboxing. Turki wants nonsense rounds in an exhibition fight. I don't think it sells as well as needed for the money he'd be paying them. Most people have never heard of Verhoeven because kickboxing is even more of a niche sport than boxing.
Verhoeven is elite in kickboxing, but crossover appeal is limited.

The biggest potential fight for Daniel Dubois in the future, is Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois II 'this fight is also my ideal fight for Joshua, and one that I personally think he should make even before fighting Tyson Fury'.

Note: There is no real rivalry between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua 'the reason why it is a mega fight, is only because of their individual career achievements and resumes. The dislike and rivalry between them has been over exaggerated by the boxing media, and particularly matchroom boxing'.

But there is a genuine engrossing narrative, and theme between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois 'their first fight was a colossal occasion, and I believe the rematch would be even bigger'.

Anthony Joshua at some point in his career, has to attempt to avenge his lost to Daniel Dubois 'I think Joshua has the ability to beat Dubois, and he is from top to bottom the better fighter. He just has to execute his best fight, and use the optimal tactics to beat Dubois.

Making unforced errors and producing uncharacteristic technical mistakes, then deciding to have a swing up while severely concussed is what created the near perfect conditions for Dubois to win.

Anthony Joshua if he fights his best fight vs. Daniel Dubois II 'would potentially not drop a single round. And over the distance in my opinion he would forced a stoppage or knock Dubois out' etc.

I wouldn't mind AJ vs Dubois 2 if AJ gets by Fury, but no that fight shouldn't happen before AJ vs Fury because chances are strong Joshua wouldn't win it.
