    So like, what happens if Dubios wins lol?

    Before I say anything, I am a HUGE fan of Usyk. I love his style and what he does inside the ring. Master level boxing, love it.

    But Usyk is 36 years-old and a 36 year-old body in boxing is not prime =---> it's just not. I think his style too has been pretty hard to maintain in those fights with AJ. Always being on the move like that against a much bigger guy, has to take something out of a physical body at such an old age.

    Usyk's run at HW has been for the most part against stiff idiots. Bellew was good on his feet, depsite still being an idiot lol.

    Dubios has only been stopped by Joyce =---> no shame in that. 6'5" with a 94% ko ratio, pretty quick, not the best beard as we've seen recently but very athletic. Lerena had him down 3x which is a big g**** stain to his name.

    I'm not implying Dubios will win, he's surely going to lose =---> but he's a decent dog. If Usyk gets old overnight and gets clipped or even doesn't look super awesome, what happens to the climate of the hw division?

    Fury fights Usyk or Dubois whoever wins. If Usyk wins that fight will happen in Saudi that is the fight they want and why they signed Usyk. And Fury will boost his profile even more with Saudi with the Ngannou fight.

    If Usyk does get stopped (dubois won't win on points his only chance is a stoppage)

    If Usyk loses im not sure where he goes, Wilder? But if he's been KOd by Dubois and has no belts Wilder Usyk isn't a fight that will sell big so not sure that would even happen.

          you know now that you've mentioned it I don't remember reading anything about usyk having a rematch clause. In fact warren said that should usyk lose to dubois there is no fight with fury for him. He said it's straight up gone. Of course it could mean that there's no fury fight next obviously and that there will be a rematch with dubois.

            Same thoughts... this kind of has upset written over it. A few Russian/Ukranian boxing channels have reported that this fighting camp has been hell on Usyk and apparently he was knocked down a few times in sparring.

            It will be interesting if Duboi's knee has healed up or it will give out.

            Duboi's best chance is to go aggressive and take it to Usyk in the first 3 or 4 rounds...

                If there's no rematch clause due it being a mandatory, I expect him to get a Fury payday straight away.

                  What are the names of these channels? I'm interested in reading some of their articles.

                    It's a mandatory that went to purses. No rematch clause.
