    Let’s be real it wasn’t even close again.. Dubois just way to methodical and slow to trouble someone like Usyk and you could see that straight away the way Usyk was able to get out the way and counter Dubois from the first round and you could see Dubois just slowing starting to fade after like the 3rd round because he just couldn’t get close and it was deflating for him. It’s what Usyk does he mentally just drains guys in there and then he steps it up and goes through the gears and he did it quickly and empathic fashion last night. A great talent and the best of the era.

      It was a clinic.
      Think he realised quick he wasn’t gonna be able to get to Usyk and he was just getting counted constantly and I think mentally that just shut him down and the writing pretty much on the wall after 3-4 rounds.

        Yardstick of how washed Joshua is. Dubois was not competitive with Usyk. Same Dubois dominated Joshua

            Subtle mastery, chin, grit, work ethic, footwork, unwillingness to back down against a horse of a man, and the presence of mind to stay focused - that does NOT just describe tonight, but rather describes his entire career. There were parts of this fight where he was walking down Dubois. Awesome!!!!!

              15 more fights with Tyson Fury and 5 with Deontay Wilder and Usyk will have earned the right to call it a day. Though Dubois beat a faded Joshua, I'd rank him just outside of the top 10, that being said, another win closes the gap for Usyk between him and world number 1 Tyson Luke Fury. Nash out - His Majesty

                It wouldn’t surprise me one iota if Wilder comes out of the woodwork and starts talking trash that he could KO Usyk.

                  Hope people will finally shut up about that low blow. Usyk is the best of the generation. Dubois lost every second of the first fight that he wasn't punching low, and Usyk is now fully settled into the weight. What a beautiful performance.

                    Nope. No chance. Those same people will always say if the ref had not "gifted" a rest to Usyk, DuBois would have beaten Usyk that first fight. Forget DuBois being warned for low blows twice in that fight prior to that punch, and never mind Usyk was in complete control and certainly would have found a way to survive the round and continue on the same path if it was ruled legal. Never underestimate keyboard warriors ability to ignore greatness.
