Comments Thread For: Dubois Gives Deontay Wilder The Edge To Beat Anthony Joshua

I think Dubois is a lot more flexible and loose than Joshua personally, he's naturally a big man, whereas Joshua was 30 lbs lighter at the same age. The muscles Joshua has put on has made him stiff. Dubois is much less defined, just a natural 240lber.... and he could get bigger and stronger as well, scary stuff! My sentiments EXACTLY Vinnykin!!! If Dubois cornered me in an ally and told me to hand over my money, I'd give him the money and thank him for a job well done! - then I'd pass out:D.....

Joshua is susceptible to the cross, Wilder will get it in. Klitshcko did each round (2,3,4) in a row - But my opinion is this, if he's good enough to see Wladimir's cross and begin a defensive head turn in the opposite direction(which he did)...for sure he will earlier anticipate, and survive, Wilder's. I wouldn't bet on this fight. But if you absolutely had to, I'd pick Joshua because of his right uppercut finisher. I think he's gonna sneak in on Wilder when Wilder starts his wild antics, and throw a weak left, right hook to body with a 70-80% left hook up top for the third punch, then a right uppercut for the fourth punch of his combo.

The problem is that he did it in 2 consecutive fights which brings questions now that he will be fighting someone who can actually bang. The first question was, looking bad was this a one off which can be shaken or a proper dip in form and he is not as good? In the very next fight he looks bad again. I hope he can do better. Did he look bad though? He soundly outboxed and outmanoeuvred two top 10 opponents with contrasting styles, fighting using different styles himself in both. I’d say that was impressive. It’s not young Mike Tyson impressive but then who is? He is still very much a developing fighter and it didn’t surprise me particularly that he said struggled vs Takam. I’ve watched many Takam fights and he is a very solid fighter with underrated skills and toughness. With Parker I was surprised that Joshua couldn’t land his own shots, but at the end of the day he controlled the fight and won pretty easily. Was a pretty dull fight but **** happens. The spotlight he is under every thing he does gets magnified to a ridiculous degree, good and bad.

Laughable! Actually have a look at a picture of him will you, he’s buit far more like wilder. Really wilder would be givin himself a real headwind if he chose him as a main sparring partner What the hell are you talking about? Dubois is built more like Wilder? is that what you are telling me? hahahaha AJ: 6'6 245+ lbs , Dubois: 6'5 240lbs, Wilder: 6'7, 220lbs take your own advice and look at a picture of Dubois, he's much more built like AJ than Wilder. FACT.

Height and build ok. But Joshua is way more defensively conscious, which could lead to miscalculations. Now, if he could get Dubois and Yoka it would be perfect Dubois is still learning, we don't know what his style will be against a top opponent, or what his defence is like, he's been front-foot so far. A sparring partner usually mimics a style, and Dubois has seen enough of Joshua to copy a pretty basic high guard style.

Agreed, Dubois is a huge tough son of gun. Wilder can get a really good idea of focused robotic rangy aggressiveness - familiarizing himself with this tall built tank (not saying he's robotic, but he's big strong and aggressive). Another few fights and Dubois is ready to give AJ all he can handle......his mindset would be the determining factor.....because imo, he has the skillset to embarrass AJ if he's confident with it....

Joshua KO’s Wilder 1st rd yup yup yup

There’s no racism against dark against light you idiot. Worry about your own people. You wouldn’t knock anything out you’re a keyboard racist warrior. You wouldn’t say anything racist to my face or Wilder face You'd be safer and better off threatening President Trump than you would me... Watch your fking mouth.

It’s a good point actually, trying to think who would be best to spar is a difficult one. There is no really similar boxer , would be interesting to see who Parker used in his preparation. Joe Joyce is pretty slow so Probably wouldn’t be the best either in my view. True true..

You think?we are not talking complexion now considering this is the hot topic��. I think Dubois is thick similar to Joshua and a tad robotic and very aggressive similar to Joshua. It’s either him or Joe Joyce ���� It’s a good point actually, trying to think who would be best to spar is a difficult one.

The man with more weaknesses will lose to the man with less weakness. As for strength, it will be about who hit hard first

would expect him to say this

Wilder dickriders get ready for bumtay windmills next fight it’s either Ortiz 2 or stiverne 3 or maybe Eric Molina so he can show what he does best to fat out shape fighters lol

I think Dubois would be a good sparring partner for Wilder if he's fighting Joshua, Dubois knows Joshua very well, and they are a similar height and build.... I think Dubois could mimic Joshua's style very well. Laughable! Actually have a look at a picture of him will you, he’s buit far more like wilder.

my bad, ".....they'd disown AJ if AJ ended up looking like that...." Ha! Wilder almost gave ortiz that nose job! If u remember what punch im talking about... lol

This is one of the smartest comments ive read on anything about both fighters , though its a forum so a few intelligent posts will be a FEW. lol As of Joshua ,hes dominated every fight but his 19th one ,looking back to a Lennox Lewis he had to change trainers after his 19 th fight bc he couldn't knock out an aged 210 pounder journeyman named Levi Billups , i swear ppl are dumb as hell on here . lol As Dubois comments , hes entitled to them but if one actually studies this fight you cannot give the edge to Wilder and the odds will reflect that ! I agree that the odds will favor Joshua but I personally favor Wilder, Wilder has intangibles and unless he is stopped early will separate Joshua from his senses. I give AJ the edge of technique but I don't think he has the chin that Wilder does. Desire to actually hurt his opponent is an intangible that is in Wilder's favor as well. He is a dangerous man!

....I was like, "who is Lord Voldermort, is he some royal I overlooked, was he at the wedding?" lol...Then I google him. Heavens to black decaffeinated tea!, they'd disown AJ if Wilder ended up looking like that:tragedy:..lol........Windmill wild "her" - thats a good one for sure!.. lol. my bad, ".....they'd disown AJ if AJ ended up looking like that...."

Of course!! Wilder will give AJ a Lord Voldermort nose job! AJ needs to fight in the u.k.. close to familiar hospital staff and ringside doctors.. we going to make yawl pay for all the birdlegs, windmill wildher, and Beyoncé comments.. in front of 90,000 joshua does his last magic trick, while unconscious he turns his white trunks.. brown. The end. Lol :-) ....I was like, "who is Lord Voldermort, is he some royal I overlooked, was he at the wedding?" lol...Then I google him.

Nah will crush the Alabama tomato can easy work for aj. Aj the unified undisputed heavyweight champion of the world wilder is still on on the canvas there trying to wake him up after AJ laid him out lol
