Comments Thread For: Whether or not Daniel Dubois almost put Anthony Joshua to sleep is irrelevant

[SUBZER0ED]

I love these articles which say that so and so A almost KO'd so and so B in sparring years ago, but it's irrelevant in a real fight, BUT, if so and so A can replicate what he did wayyy back when...then so and so B goes to sleep, but again, it's just irrelevant, so never mind!

Sparring stories only matter if the loser of the sparring recalls it. Like fury saying Josh beat him in sparfing.
I don't like it when eubanks junior said he best so and so on sparring when so and so don't agree. Or bakole saying he best everyone?
Lots said they lost to bruce Lee in sparring, that's impressive, as I doubt people take joy in it so that's got cedibikity. Joe Orbillo said Bruce Lee too good

[Phase III]

As I reported here long before people started writing about this, AJ and Dubois were both wearing 18oz gloves and headgear. As I reported, AJ was out cold and didn’t recover fir some time. People in the gym thought he was dead. AJ’s body was motionless for a long time.

AJ can’t take a shot to the chin. His rehab against Ngannou, Helenius and Wallin was carefully organized. All three were sitting ducks for the right hand. Dubois KO against AJ is still very much living rent free in his head.

DDD by KO! Or 100% robbery.

FYI, Ben Davidson’s strategy for the fight is as follows: AJ will fight from a distance and try to win the fight using his jab. AJ has been told, don’t even think about taking any risk because the judges have been brought so just survive until the final bell. Watch carefully how cautious AJ fights.

Reminds me of how Team AJ jobbed Oilskin Parker for his belt.

Ddd can be dirty at there in times , has threw low blows alot (not just the udyk situation) , headbutts probably kept him in the hrgovic fight.

Cant see any ref letting him get away with that stuff against aj. Can see dubois having points deducted in this one

Attention Phase III pls do return here to give credit and honor when AJ batters this new Frank Bruno. No more to say but we will be alive on the day

If you knew the DDD life story and then watched him reach the heights he’s reached in boxing, you’d be shocked. I root for the underdog. DDD shall prevail. It’s called destiny.

Sounds like woman prattle, destiny my left testicle if he wins it's because he done his job.

Hopefully that's not the plan. Dubois has the better jab.

He just doesn't box from range with it given he's a bit of a big ******. That's not supposed to be a dig at Dubois, by the way, he just is. He's not smart. I don't think he's even below average intelligence.

I think Joshua will win but people are sleeping on Dubois and particularly his jab.

I reckon the fight will be fireworks. Dubois doesn't hang back. He's the closest thing we've got to a 90s throwback.
