It's funny how all the "boogeymen" of boxing always seem to be guys who have limited fanbases and bring little economic incentive.
I remember Makhmudov was supposed to be a Boogeyman too. Until he wasn't.Comment

I don't really agree with this. Dubois is a massive puncher, he just has a lot of flaws from his durability to his heart and resistance. I'd like to see him put it all together against Hrgovic although Filip is a clear favorite for good reason.Comment

Dubois took a knee after Joyce literally broke his face. That's not quitting, that's common sense. Now, against Usyk, he quit, likely after being discouraged by Pabon"s low-blow call on a belt shot. Usyk hates shots to the gut, as demonstrated by Joshua, Dubois and Fury. If an opponent hits him there consistently, he'll crap himself.Hrgovic had better rely on more than what he believes is a psychological advantage. I'm going with Dubois.

Dubois looks like he has faster hand speed and has demonstrated he can work from the outside. So far, I don't see the hype with Hrgovic. This fight, for me, is a great litmus test for both fighters. Has Dubois found the dog in him? Is Hrgovic good enough to fight someone with decent skill and speed, who likes to consistently commit to the low blows, I mean, body shots? Volume, not power, will be Dubois' friend in this fight, I suspect. I think he can wear the big guy down and bank points, and win if it goes 12. But he's going to have to avoid quitting.

2016 Tony Bellew fought for WBC world title vs Ilungu Makabu and he got broken nose. He did not quit, instead of that he continued and KO Makabu.
"He broke my nose with that left jab. I'm talking through my nose now, but I have a green and gold belt. If I had to take my nose off my face for that belt, I would," Bellew said after the win.Last edited by James; 05-30-2024, 06:55 AM.Comment

yes filip has showed a very good chin so far. But Dubois and Joyce showed great chins up until they got cracked too many timesComment

Zhangs punches come 1 mile per hour. You got time to make a sandwich and still get out the way. DD is much faster and should be able to land much more punches.
