    I see Gorman winning around 8-4 in the eyes of most viewers, but I see it being controversially scored either a draw or a split decision win for Dubois.

        This is a very tough fight to pick, I could see dubois right hand ending the fight at any moment, or I could see Gorman outboxing dubois to a decision.

        I SLIGHTLY favor Gorman, because I believe he has the edge in just about every area except power. If the rumors about sparring are true, that's also an advantage. Dubois didn't look good in his last fight, even got momentarily rocked by a stationary target(I don't believe Gorman will just sit on the ropes waiting to be hit.

        I see the first couple rounds being explosive, with dubois getting the better of the action. Then I expect Gorman to outbox him gaining a sizeable lead on the scorecards. Then dubois, knowing he's behind, goes all out in the last two rounds, maybe even dropping Gorman. In the end Gorman's superior boxing skills lead him to a 115-112 win in a great heavyweight fight.

        Terrific undercard as well, I hope Jennings exposes Joyce for the extreme lack of handspeed he has.

          Joyce will get exposed bc of hand speed ?


          You do know someone usually is exposed already if they lack chin and have a few losses by stoppage right ? lol



          If Jennings managed to cause the upset it would be bigger then the AJ one bc Jennings is no Ruiz and I would find it hilarious just seeing Joyce not being able to anything here against a guy that wont be able to hurt him.


          Jennings is a good fighter but exposing Joyce bc of hand speed vs showing Jennings chin to be able to take his shots just throws exposed out the window bc only one guy here has folded so far.

            A close fight, but I'm not really impressed by either guy.

            Gorman is a relative of the Fury clan, so I hope Dubois smashes him.

              Joyce gets brutalized by anyone in the top 10.

                  I could see how he could lots of them problems. He’s relentless and doesn’t stop throwing all night.

                  He’s too slow to land anything on Fury and i think Wilder would would beat him too, his power and ability to find big shots would probably finally get to Joyce.

                  Apart from them, if he could get the likes of AJ and Whyte past 6 rounds, he could wear them down with his relentless approach and their poor stamina.

                    Yea sure he does that's why he was Tyson Fury main sparring partner to help him prepare for Wilder and has wins over Hrgovic who is touted as the next big thing at HW by many...lol

                      Gorman is the more polished fighter imo
                      But will need to whether the early storm
                      If he can hold off Dubois for the first five rounds I think he clearly wins a decision
                      That being , I don’t believe he has enough power to ko Dubois
