Dubois has potential but I always think people here get a bit too excited too quick.
He's just pure raw. I mean Joshua was pretty raw, but he has some background still, step this guy up quick and he could get found out before he's ready
Don't put him in with big pricey. Pricey may be mentally shot, but he's so much more technically solid, I think his right hand would see Dubois off within 2. Unless Dubois has a tremendous chin
Dave Allen fight won't happen due too matchroom - sports network divide
He's got time on his side to iron out some of the roughness and he could go places

The Little-Sandland winner would be a very good opponent for him. Even the loser would top anyone he's fought by a good distance.
I think Monduo wasn't that bad actually. But yes, he was very small

I'd like to see him face Akinlade or Lewinson (sic) next year.

Caught this fight last night. Not really seen much of dubois...looks raw but feck me he almost killed carter with that last shot. At 20 years old you ve got to look at that as impressive regardless of the opposition. A hard man to match atm cause he looks like he needs a lot of learning at the same time looks like he can really hurt people in their.
Warren should be rubbing his hands with him at 20 tbh. With the right training/dedication...he can really go places. That last punch was a massive shot. Just need to improve his boxing now. That looks pretty basic tbh.

I predict the minimum he will achieve is Same as Bruno

I just wanna see the lad do well and I think his best bet for improvement is showing some of his ability over a few rounds against a journeyman, fair enough he has legit power at a certain level so far, but everyone knows you need more than that to beat the best.

Hes got a better look about him than Joshua has. I think he just looks smoother. Joshua still looks robotic and cumbersome. If his stamina and chin hold up, I think Dubois will turn out to be a better fighter in the long run. His power has to be concussive at top level, which I'm sure it will.

Thinks AJ Carter should fight Tom Dallas in a box off

Why is his win from Saturday listed as a TKO? It was a clean KO. I've got no problem with Dubois learning his trade at English/British level for the next year or so, just don't want him knocking over foreign journeymen until he's 15-0.

I said this on another thread. This was a bad, and very dangerouse booking for AJ Carter. It was obvious he was being used to add to DD's highlight reel.

Sad if that's true. Dubois got very little out of it. As previous posters have said Sokolowski should be next up. Tough, big, decent skills, always ready to fight and not a lethal puncher.

Is he in good shape, mate? I know it was donkey's years ago but I can't put his gassing v Dallas in prizefighter out of my mind. Good scrap that was.

I know. I'm saying as he progresses I'd prefer it to be through the domestic levels.
