    Dubois has taken a knee 4 times. Other than power I don’t think he has anything that Usyk hasn’t seen before. I expect he would win a wide UD.
    I think he still can have a good career. Last fight first knockdown he fell back awkwardly then cause of the injury went down after not because the guy he fought had power. And the Joyce fight was lost yeah but his eye did get fully swollen and they had x rays to show it was damaged. He saved his eye sight. Joyce done well with the jab and doing that to his eye but still rate Dubois to have a good career i think he can get a belt one day think people forget how young he is yet. Boxers don't look indestructible for a fight or 2 and people opinions change fully. I want to see a future fight him vs Jared Anderson

      so he’s pf looked good in 2 of his last three fights, and is the unified heavyweight champ.

        This fight is borderline bullying

        Dubios is not going to know how to defend his kidney bean head

            It is fine. Dubois adds that element all HW do over Usyk- size and power. It is a dangerous fight for the belts and Usyk does need to get these to mandatories. Hrgovic has been waiting, what, over a year?

              It would be solid - if Bud took on a worthwhile opponent.

                Has it been that long? He got the mandatory when he was gifted the win over Zhang,.

                  I can`t see Dubois and Hrgovic trouble Usyk.

                  Things can be interesting with Joyce.

                    I don't see the risk there. When there is little risk, there is little vulnerability. When there is little vulnerability, there is little excitement.

                      Solid interesting fight for Usyk.

                      Dubois can also go into the fight knowing 'Win, lose or draw he can use the performance to gain momentum over the long term'.

                      If Dubois puts in a good effort, I think long term in his career 'This helps him'.

                      Not every fighter can be a Super elite fighter, but they can still be top contenders and challengers.

                      Dubois right now, is going to find it tough to beat any of the Top Heavyweights 'But I honestly think he can be competitive, and beat fighters just below elite level'.

                      The landscape will shift in the division, that is when fighters like Dubois will get their opportunities 'Just like now with this potential fight'.
