The gulf in class became more obvious as the fight went on - I'm sure I heard the commentary say Skeete has been promised a 'world' title fight within 9 months - he's definitely above this level anyway.

Apparently this guy Barragan knocked Joshua down in sparring a few weeks back....

Kinda funny start to the Daniel DuBois vs Mauricio Barragan fight
"Let's see if Barragan can give him any sort of test" and then Barragan promptly goes down from the 1st punch of the fight
10-8 Dubois

I heard somebody threw a paper cup out of a car window recently. It hit Joshua and he went down.

Daniel 'Son of Bruno' DuBois obviously can hit and has plenty of time to improve, but looks rather slow, ponderous and clumsy

You missed an awesome 12th
Dubois should be on after every Skeete fight.

Or better yet let Dubois fight 2 bums and don't show Skeete at all.

Took the thoughts out my head. No doubt he has power, but fornicate me he's made of slow twitch fibres. AJ has a bigger box of tricks I think.

Wish they'd decide if he's "Dynamite" or "Dangerous" Daniel Dubois.
Announced as one before the fight and the other in victory.

The WBC took a sanction fee for that. What an absolute farce.

No reason why any promoter should bother to pay a sanctioning fee for an absolutely meaningless belt like that. If I were Dubois I'd have turned it down.

He sounds about as bright as Bruno as well....he needs a catch phrase - ' you feel me Ron, innit?

Bunce says it's easy to knock. He seems to find it far, far easier to arse lick.
No rush with Dubois but surely they can find heavyweights for him to fight.

Dubios earns a top 20 WBC ranking with that victory, in his 4th fight. Watch for him being bought in as a late replacement for Deontay Wilder next time out and the press building it up as though he has a fairytale chance.

If they actually think they have a potential big star with him they'd be foolish to bring him in to fight Wilder so soon.

Has Byfield got Dappy Ndubz in his corner?

That's what I thought he said, then I thought 'naw, I must have misheard it'. Was that a Freudian slip? He's accidently said what he's thinking...

He definitely said it.
Anyone know anything about Dubois' boxing sister ?

Byfield is clearly an awkward opponent, but from what I can see here I'm not sure McNess would win a fight at my local boozer...
Laughable the way we've just had Mark and Jimmy Tibbs talking him up.

McNess has good survival instincts at least.
