    as a boxing fan, I too was frustrated to see Dubois get a title shot before Joyce, Zhang and Hrgovic. Dubois' most notable fight was a loss to Joyce, the ABCs and their rankings are very "questionable".

        Yes, he has every right to be frustrated. That said, he should know what to expect from this shaddy sport! Hat's off to him for fighting Zhang when most would have stayed idle to protect a title shot. Win or loose vs Zhang, he can still get a big payday fighting AJ or Fury in the UK. If those fights don't happen, UK fans will come out to see him to face Chissora and Dubois so good $ fights. Time to be smart with the $, realestate etc.. not get rich quick stuff.

          Joe you are a bit slow, can't you see Dubois is Frank's priority he could of taken you down the WBA route but that's his golden goose. Frank could of gotten you Fury instead of Whyte or Chisora. It's time to consider a new promoter mate otherwise your career could be really disappointing especially if you lose to Zhang again.
          Frank was cheering for Dubois when he matched him with Joyce. He didn’t even hide it but Joyce has gotten much higher profile fights with bigger purses. He beat Parker in a great fight. He clearly overlooked Jimmy Wang Yang & paid for it.

          Joyce could have taken an easier fight but chose not to & it backfired. Whyte took the same risk against Povetkin. Jameel McCline against Calvin Brock is another. Ray Mercer vs Jesse Ferguson, Tommy Morrison vs Michael Bentt.

          Frank got Dubois an easy route to a title shot but Joyce was up after Hrgovic & everyone thought undisputed was happening next followed by a rematch. The belts would have been vacated for guys like Joyce, Dubois & Hrgovic to fight for them. That all changed when undisputed didn’t happen. Warren still has Dubois, Joyce & Fury in his stable along with a few prospects. In making Joyce/Yang happen i believe he said he picked up options on Yangs next few fights as well. Warren is still in a good position within the division.

            Fact's! This definitely sounds about right to me, Joyce is just too slow.

              Blame your promoter Joe! Warren has always favoured Dubois over you.

                It seems like he's forgotten that fact, in that sense they're both in the same boat, except that Dubois has been further exposed being dropped in 3 of his last 6 fight's.

                      Usyk and Joyce already fought. Joyce looked like he was wearing cement shoes. Usyk beat the brakes off of him. Nothing to see in that rematch.
