    Dubois vs Zhang now?

    Both of them coming off KO losses. Saw Zhang calling out Dubois a while back. Who wins this fight?

    Zhang has no gas tank, Dubois has no heart. Tough call.

    If Dubois gets through 4 rounds he probably wins.

      Dubois knock his head off. Zhang is 50 years old and he has gas tank for 3 rounds.

        Ill go with Dubois on this one. Youth and Athleticism should carry him.

          Taking Dubois, although he is slow and has poor punch selection, he still will beat old man Zhang.

            Zhangs been stopped by a body shot ,Dubois has been chinned numerous times now his punch resistance will be at an all time low

              Zhang could age over night here but at the moment I see him losing to skilled boxers that can neutralise his power or good inside fighters that can wear him down

              dubois is a head hunter that would play into zhangs hands. Theres probably more chance of miller beating zhang style wise to be fair

                When Ortiz was 36 lot of boxings fans claimed too old and always dissed about his age (not one person can prove he is older than we knew) Now they be over hyping fighters in their 40s like Zhang and Chisora

                  Sometimes recency bias affects the way we view fighters after a win or loss. In this case, I don't think Dubois' loss to Usyk is why I think he may struggle with Zhang.

                  Zhang is a southpaw and he has some quick, heavy hands. Dubois comes head on and tries to take your head off but he's not the most defensively responsible and doesn't really move his head.

                  Zhang likely wouldn't have move around the ring to find Dubois which might help with his has tank. I think he's able to land a few heavy lefts off of Dubois' head that likely end the fight.

                    I don't think Dubois has a sturdy enough chin and he would play to Zhang's strengths.

                    Zhang in three unless Daniel tries a different tactic.
