    It doesn't matter what Warren says about sparring - Joshua has just looked (+ performed) way better in his pro career. Usyk has said that Dubois is just not on the same level as Joshua.

    Someone like Zhang or Fury is a real threat to Joshua - not Dubois​

      And that's why Joshua is fighting DuBois.

        It's true he's probably avoiding Zhang (a bigger risk) because he wants the Fury fight.

        Although maybe people forget that AJ knocked down and beat Zhang when they did fight in the Olympics...

          Huh. See, I didn't even know that.
          But, as they say, that was then and this is now.
          I would love to see Zhang vs Joshua!
          Time is running out on Zhang though.

            Any trace of the more green, less confident Dubois seem to be gone at this point. But the same can be said for AJ. Plowing Amir Khan's wife and churning her guts inside out, seems to have really taken his killer instinct to the next level

              Why do you think Zhang is a real threat to Joshua, as opposed to Dubois out of interest? Yes he punches hard, but he’s so methodical and gasses within 6 rounds, plus did nothing against Parker apart from the 2 knockdowns.

              I remember watching the Hgorvic vs Zhang fight and thinking how inferior they both were to AJ and Usyk, and I recall the commentators making a similar observation. Dubois showed Hgorvic’s true level, and I believe both him and AJ would do the same with Zhang, who ironically has lost to AJ as an amateur already.

                  Big Doobie has a lot more chance to beat AJ than he's getting credit for. There's no reason in particular for my pick of Big Doobie, no stylistic reason. I'm picking Big Doobie because I think that he's got more fight in him than AJ. When the fight gets hard , Big Doobie can bite down harder than AJ. Of course , I could be 100% wrong. We will see.
