The laughably crooked IBF needs to step in here and put a stop to needless rematches. Enough is enough.

I agree

So Joshua got to put a rematch clause in a contract in which he was the challenger to the IBF belt? How the *** does that work? Like WTF? He just got steamrolled in 5 rounds in a bout he got dropped 4 times in. How did Warren even allow it to be put in the contract?

Hearn is the Turki whisperer and the Turki loves sweet nothings whispered in his ear by the smooth talking Edward in his fake wide boy accent.

Bakole vs Dubois is a interesting fight. I think its a bad style for Dubois though. I think Bakole would ko him. Dubois too easy to hit.

I, too, believe Bakole would knock DDD out.

Let's face it, Dubois looked like a monster yesterday mainly because of Joshua's well-known flaws in defence, chin and - especially - psyche. Those are problems that can be hidden for a while, but inevitably resurface sooner or later. Confidence-building fights such as the ones AJ had of late can't solve them.

Bakole's mind is on another level of confidence. I don't think he wins easy, but he probably does win against DDD.

Only Usyk stands at the pinnacle.

Fury, Parker and Dubois are a level below with only Parker having never been tested vs Usyk while the other 2 failed theirs.

Fury wins the rematch.

he didn't even do any sparring for the first fight because of the cut. He did a bit of body sparring with his friend Ty Mitchell. He just won't say it publicly.

he still won about 5 rounds.

Better version in December. Usyk won't improve on it.

An AJ fight rearly bores me
Fighting is only half the job
Winning is kind of important.

To add, highly doubt the best Derek bests this AJ.

If winning is important you shouldn't be following AJ when he fights someone with a pulse he loses...

Entertainment and competitive fights is what we watch for and Delboy delivers, he rarely if ever gets completely outclassed apart from against Fury, Vitali and Usyk...

Every other fight he's been in he's competitive in and ran multiple people close arguably beating a good few of them in AJs losses he's been trounced every time and essentially capitulated.

And when he's fighting someone in and around his own age he always looks abysmal barring the Whyte fight who's not very good to begin with.

I don't know whose more dilusional AJ or Fury fans. This is an article about last night's fight and somehow Fury fan as yourself made this about Fury v Ussyk. I know someone mentioned it in the discussion and you got so butt hurt you had to make this about Fury. Sad twits you bunch.

No way DuBois should fight anyone before he fights the Fury v Usyk winner.

He won 5 rounds clowning while Usyk was figuring him out. Once that happened Fury had nothing else to offer.

Next time Usyk wont need 5 rounds and Fury won't see out the fight no matter how much sparring he does.

AJ needs to train with Robert Garcia in USA. and leave the silk pyjamas in UK
