      Having said that Usyk can def be stopped - he is a small guy and Dubois does have the power. If Usyk hangs around the HW's long enough he will get stopped at some point + he is getting older
      I agree. Usyk is the real deal, the best of the current crop, but he is getting older which means he is getting closer to his expiry date. If he hangs around for too long he will definitely get stopped. Fury knew what to do to hurt Usyk in both fights but this version of Fury could no longer execute that game plan for 12 rounds to really hurt Usyk and knock him out. He got old and he does not have the stamina to fight someone like Usyk.

      Someone younger will have the stamina and faster hands to be able to execute the game plan and really hurt Usyk if he fights on for another two to three years. We have seen what happened to Klitschko. He got old in the ring because he fought on for too long. By the way, in my opinion, the shot to the body that DDD landed and put Usyk down, I thought was legal.

        I think Dubois will gas out against Parker.

          I do not think DDD will even get past Parker at this point. Even if he manages to, I would rather see Usyk go another direction, even moving back down to CW.

              You probably will, since Dubois isn't likely to get past Parker.

              But if Dubois beats Parker, wouldn't you think he should get the fight over the man he beat?

                  Agreed. For me the punch was 50/50 as to whether it was legal But worth noting that after being badly hurt, Usyk beat up Dubois and stopped him. If Dubois had won that fight with that punch- we basically already saw the rematch.

                    It's possible but Dubois kept going against Miller and Miller was in his face for most of the fight. Parker is less pressure and more of a smart fighter

                      I think Dubois will be a bit more dangerous in a rematch. He's got a chip on his shoulder now. Younger, strong, and hungry. I think Usyk is more skilled but Dubois would be more challenging imo a second time around.
