Dubois doesn't deserve the shot but... I do think he may have his moments. He let's his hands go, and every punch is the KO shot, unlike Joshua. I suspect Dubois will be beaten, but... I do think he might make Usyk look vulnerable at times. The aggressiveness, and being a basically young and fearless slugger type is going to be interesting.

Dubois has more than enough in his arsenal to make this interesting.

Usyk is not superman.

For sure - especially in the early rounds as Usyk does his typical measuring his opponent and before Dubois get disheartened/discouraged.

Will Usyk risk taking it easy with Dubois as he did with Chisora to tempt Fury??

Why’s Dubois 6th in the boxrec rankings. He should be 15th and nowhere near a world title shot.

He hasn’t shown any discernible improvement since the Joyce defeat and needed a big favour from the ref to beat Larena last time out.

This is the kind of joke fight for a world title that gives boxing a bad name.

Thanks for posting the link to the Uysk vs Dubois Press Conference.

Alex Krassyuk made an interesting statement:

" It is an honour to be working with Queensbury, but I can't say it has been a pleasure".

Sounds like negotiations between the two sides have not been the easiest.

I'm looking forward to this fight. Dubois backs himself, which is good to see.

That’ll be class. Are you going to drive it? I floated it to some mates but none were overly interested (a couple didn’t have a clue who Dubois was!). We did Klitschko vs Haye and Fury but all of have young kids now so harder to get away.
