    Why is Dubois getting pushed?

    Why is Frank Warren trying to push Dubois so hard to fight one of the top ten this early? He wants Dubois to fight Usyk if Joshua vacates the belt as well. Is Dubois really good enough to beat them or is Frank losing it?

      DDD gots 3.5 years in the pro game. I'm a proponent of guys making a move towards legit fights aiming for a belt around that 3 to 5 year mark if they are moved the way most promoters move boxers. I think DDD is on a good trajectory. Not too fast, not too slow.

        He will very likely be a world champion one day. At 23 hes got plenty of time to bounce back from losses, and win or lose fighting guys like Joyce this early will only make him better in the long run. Its far better than letting him fight nothing but bums for the next 5 years.

          Because he believes in his fighter, who also believes in himself. No different than the way Boots Ennis is being pushed. If you got it, you got it.

            Because Dubois got the skills to pay the bills.

              He is 23 years old...just turned 23 years old about 2 Weeks ago but he does have 15 Pro Fights so I do think it is time for a step up and Joyce is perfect for his 1st Step Up. Stylistically I think that is going to be a fun fight!

                    This is clearly an even matchup of two british contenders determining who storms the world stage. These guys are way more known than any other heavyweights at their level. No one is being pushed.
