Dubois rematch Is the worst option for usyk

[NihonJim]

Especially as this will likely be his last proper fight.

Kabayel or Parker would be fresh opponents and very interesting fights, especially Kabayel.

We have all seen Usyk vs Dubois before, nobody believes Dubois has a chance and the rematch does nothing for Usyk.

If Usyk retires on the back of Dubois and then Pereira and Kabayel goes on to take over the division it leaves questions.

Parker isn't as interesting but he is full of confidence and deserves a big fight, I'd also prefer him to Dubois as at least it's a fresh style matchup.

There's opportunity for Usyk to diversify his heavyweight resume and I think he should. Kabayel is a real challenge.

Parker is great

Couldn't agree more.

It also leaves a bad taste to reward Dubois for pulling out with getting a shot at undisputed.

My preference would be Kabayel vs Usyk, and for Parker to get his shot at Dubois.

Parker is great

I've got all the respect for Parker but to me he lacks the nastiness that would be required to have a real chance against Usyk.

Kabayel on the other hand is an animal.

But Parker as well as Kabayel has earned his chance.

Usyk spanks both of them fools.

Usyk spanks both of them fools.

Yeah but he actually has to do it for people to be able to claim that.

Yeah but he actually has to do it for people to be able to claim that.

We can only hope these good fights happen!

I want Usyk/Parker mostly, Usyk/Kabayel would be solid too. No need for rematches when you have solid fresh challengers out there.

[Sparked_26]

It didn't really feel like a fight that warranted a rematch. No doubt Dubois is a confident fighter now but Usyk is too smart for him.

Kabayel committed body attack is something interesting for Usyk. It is hard to imagine Usyk being beaten up like that though.

I mean I can't see Usyk losing lots of rounds vs anybody. He is going to have to be taken out and he tends to recover quickly. So in that sense there is an argument that Dubois would be the most likely to land the one bingo shot like that but it's just not that exciting a prospect.
