    I thought he was doing pretty well against Wood before getting stopped. I would've liked to see Nunez get his title shot, but Warrington makes more business sense. I expected to see all Brits on a Wembley show. Personally, I like the card the way it is. The only way to improve the card is to put guys like Sam Noakes and Dalton Smith on it.

      This fight feels so small and insignificant despite having 2 of the top 5 HWTs in it.

        True but calling Dubois top 5 just seems crazy, although I guess maybe he technically is. I think Anderson, Sanchez, Ruiz, Zhang, Parker, Kabayel and probably even Joyce (again) beat him.

          Funny enough I was all excited that Nunez was getting a crack at the title but it definitely makes more sense for them to have Warrington $$$$$

            TBRB ranks them;

            Usyk (Champ)
            Fury
            AJ
            Parker
            Zhang
            DuBois

              Fun UK fight that will probably do good business and have a great atmosphere. I dont think Dubois has much for AJ though, hes gonna get stopped within 6-7 rds imo. Gotta respect him for taking yet another tough fight at such a young age anyway.

                No doubt, technically his rating is high. Beating Hrgovic gave him a quite a boost, a lot of people rated Hrgovic highly. I never rated Hrgovic highly so, at least in my mind, beating him wasn't that great an achievement. AJ is wise though to take advantage, he'll beat Dubois easily

                  Yeah if you’re AJ it’s the only way you get a belt because other HwTs will get a crack at Usyk before he gets a 3rd fight.

                    Warrington getting a shot after being KO’d at the weight below just doesn’t feel right to me. Would’ve preferred Barrett or Wood. I do give Josh a decent chance of winning though.

                      The IBF has officially lowered their heavyweight championship to sub-IBO status. Truly a sad day for boxing.
