Maybe if he could move his head, Dubois could have a good shot at being something in the heavyweight division.

He was just 23 years old. At that age Joyce, Joshua and Usyk hadn’t had one pro fight.

If he's not learned to slip a jab by now, it's not going to happen at this stage.

Are you referring to Joshua?

People like to make excuses now about the fight, but there has been zero call out from team Dubois for a rematch. After all he was still in the fight and has seasoned a lot since then, so why not. Just silence, same as team Fury.

lol

I find that surprising actually, that he was favourite. Although I guess up to that point, he had looked pretty devastating.

at the time JJ had a relatively low profile and not really fighting any top level opponents whilst DDD was just smashing thru all comers so its not such a surprise he was the favourite .

Joyce to win in rounds 7-12 is 9/1. I'm tempted by those odds. Is he being heavily overlooked here?

In my eyes a 7-12 stoppage for Joyce is the most likely thing to happen which is why I'm not betting on it, as it never happens the way I foresee it

Really I'd of liked to have seen Joyce against the likes of Whyte and Chisora (not now, but earlier in his career) to have properly gauged him. It's great and grand he's hyperactive, at least in comparison to the rest of the field, and finally facing name value opponents but I'd still argue that we're in such a weak era of heavyweights that he's basically European level but being ranked as world level.

I said before, clearly he's better than Dubois and Hrgovic so it's a shame he's not getting first crack at Usyk. I just think he'd lose to Fury and Usyk. His best shot would be Joshua and Wilder at this point.

Dubois was ahead on two judges’ cards before he was stopped with eye damage against Joyce.

This is the best news for a long time, sounds like it's happening!
