Dubois’ chances next weekend.

[NihonJim]

I believe his chances depend upon Father Time in regards to Usyk.

Disagree, Usyk is the same fighter as he was 2 years ago, Dubois however in this fight will be the first confident fighter in good form that Usyk has faced at heavyweight.

Don't believe me? Look at the form that AJ, Fury and Dubois 1 were in when they fought Usyk, they had all been looking terrible in their recent fights.

Dubois is on good form and confident, it's a challenge Usyk hasn't seen yet at heavyweight.

Usyk was already well past his prime 2 years ago. His absolute peak was in the Briedis-Gassiev era, when he was fighting 4x a year and was a world class athlete.

As a heavyweight his peak was in the first AJ fight. Ever since then the UK promoters have been desperate to age him out and kill him with inactivity, the same thing they're trying to do with Parker and Kabayel now.

Since then Usyk has been fighting once or twice a year, has slowed down significantly and yet he still beat the crap out of Fury, AJ and Dubois even as an old man. His feet are noticeably slower and his punch output has faded and he is showing some signs that the silk sheets are starting to get to him.

He will still probably beat Dubois because he is simply from a different class of boxer and athlete than Dubois.

Usyk did look slower in the second fury fight, as did fury, Dubois has never looked better, usyk still quite the favourite but chucked a little bet on Dubois knockout, could find a slower usyk and put him down.

Dubois has power, so there's always a chance, but Usyk’s footwork and ring IQ should be too much. I’d say Usyk by late stoppage or clear decision

[champion4ever]

I say Daniel Dubois by KO. Usyk is too old. Those two Fury bouts have really aged and took a lot out of him. Father Time is undefeated.

Also. this time around; Dubois just may get the benefit of a doubt. Many boxing fans and experts alike are split over whether Triple D defeated him the first time.

I personally believed that body punch Daniel Dubois landed was legal. I expect him to target that same area again.

[Butt stuff]

Usyk had two of his toughest fights with Fury. He's getting to (or is at) the end of his career. Dubois is seemingly getting better each fight, and is riding a big high off of his last three stoppages.

I'm a big Usyk fan but I think Dubois has a strong chance – if I were Usyk I would have already sailed off into the sunset with one of the best careers the sport has ever seen.

I agree. This is a fight that Oleksandr doesn’t need. At this point of his career he has nothing to prove. The longer he prolongs his career; Then the greater are his chances of losing.

dubois has no chance

[NihonJim]

funny how apparently Usyk "schooled" fury but now suddenly in preparation in case he loses we are hearing how the fury fights "took so much out of Usyk". Hang on I thought they were easy wins?
