Has anyone .. Ermm.. bought this?

Or gonna stream it?

I'll watch it tomorrow.

I like Dubois, but don't expect Bryan to give him much trouble.

The most amazing thing seems to be that it's a Don King promotion!

90 years old (same age as 'granpa' Bob Arum) and still going strong.

will be a very short fight. can't imagine Dubois taking more than 2 rounds.

Does Dubois acctually have enough power to put someone away? Don't think that it would be the right strategy for him.

Spoilers, don't scroll down if you want to avoid:

































































Dub won by one-punch KO in the 4th. Won the other rounds handily but mostly struggled to land the right hand well. Upped the intensity in the third and in the fourth found a clean, short left hook, Bryan bounced face first off the canvas, flopped around a bit trying to get up, ref waived it off. He probably beat the count but was in no state to continue.

It's not a spoiler giving away who won, it was an easy guess

Good for Dubois. Too bad he has a cursed belt, though. If the curse holds, then he'll only fight one time in the next 3 years. Dubois continues to have great potential. He might end up with the highest peak among the heavyweights currently aged 22 - 29.

Just saw the fight really quick. Wow, how Bryan ever managed to have people think he was legit or even win a fake title is beyond me. Looked like easy work for Dubois, and no way is Bryan early 30's. He looked like a 50 year old man in there, wtf!!!!

Bryan fell like a sack of sh!t. Finally he got exposed.

how did Trevor Bryan ever get a belt. he did not look at all motivated slow even

It's always been a joke belt with a joke holder. Don King's last pathetic gasp. Good riddance to the crook.

Congratulations to Daniel Dubois on winning the WBA Cereal Packet Heavyweight Championship of the World.

Seeing as rematch clauses seem to be all the rage, we can all look forward to the rematch in about 3 - 5 years where exactly the same thing will happen again, or failing that, a first defence against Fres Oquendo in about 2036.

Bryan certainly did get exposed, his WBA fake belt and his 22 - 0 record too.

Terrible fight, terrible gamble by King and co too.

Good matchmaking for Dubois, he was patient and he did what he should have, but he can't take too much from that.

Makes u wonder what was in it for King?

Has Dubois sold off any future stuff to king?

This is class..



Just dissed Trevor Bryan.

Forgot his name too.

Anyone would have guessed.

Get frank in there for a rumble, he loves a court case. Ddd needs to forget about that million and keep fighting.

Or just get DDD over there to chin don next time he is waving his little flags about. We could crowd fund that to cover DDDs purse.

Don King rips off a boxer. Who would ever of thought that???

You get in bed with the devil expect to get screwed

thieving scumbag

King did nothing wrong. After everything involving him, you should lose your money working with him at this point. I don't feel sorry for anyone signing with him or signing to fight his fighters. Dubois should just be happy he got his fake belt at least and move on.

Don King: I’ve never not paid a fighter

WBA heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois has filed a lawsuit against Hall of Fame promoter Don King alleging that he wasn’t paid for his fight with Trevor Bryan on DKP’s June 11 event in Miami.

King responded by saying he’s been requesting banking and wire information from Dubois’ promoter allegedly for two months. After not getting a reply, King’s lawyer Tony Gonzalez put the funds in escrow waiting for Warren to respond. DuBois’ lawyer Leon Margules finally sent the wire instructions after Warren and Queensberry Promotions failed to reply to Don King Promotions’ multiple requests for wire instructions.

Warren and his promotional company, Queensberry Promotions, had the television rights payment for BT Sports deducted from the purse, per the agreement.

King has already paid DuBois’ foreign taxes to the IRS of $420,660.12.

“I have talked with DuBois and his father about the matter,” said King. “I’ve told them the money was in escrow and waiting for DuBois’ promoter and manager, allegedly, wiring instructions.

“Did Frank lose my number? He knows where to reach me.

“I love allegedly. His word, honor, and integrity have been above and beyond any contract or agreement with me. His word has been his bond…impeccable! I am deeply hurt and terribly disappointed in what is happening now.

“I’ve never not paid a fighter and this is certainly not the case here.”

King’s lawyer Gonzalez added, “DKP has made all requisite payments towards Mr. Dubois’ purse.

“Pursuant to Florida State Athletic Commission Director Patrick Cunningham’s instructions, proof of payment in the form of the payment for the 30% IRS backup withholding was provided along with $475,000 setoff towards Mr. Dubois’ purse at the instruction of Mr. Dubois’ promoter, Queensbury.”

“Additionally, and at the instruction of Mr. Cunningham, an escrow deposit was made in the amount of $134,000.00 representing a final balance due Mr. Dubois after applying a setoff of $319,000 for outstanding monies owed DKP by Mr. Warren. Also, all sanction fees owed by Mr. Dubois were paid in full to the WBA.”

Why has the various sports governing bodies allowed Don King to retain ownership of his boxing license? His track-record for screwing fighters is horrendous!

Simple answer. He pays them

I'm a little confused - Dubois won, but we still don't seem to have Freedom and Peace? Was Dubois the baddie?
