    Dubois is fighting in couple of weeks, Warren needs to then throw some money towards Fast Fres and have him face Dubois.

    Very winnable and he gets a WBA trinket.

    Not sure how easy that'd be, I don't think he ranked by the WBA.

    Swap that A for an O however and you've got a fight!

    I worked that part out. What about the WBO?

    They're Frank Warren's private sanctioning body.

    Frank is Dubois's promoter... If Dubois is picking up an interim / international / silver / plastic trinket you can guarantee it'll be WBO

    Anything to do with oquendo is a farce

    I don't think he should at all, that elevates him to world level far too quickly, even if he probably would beat him.

    Thread is in reference to the WBA regular. The WBO equivalent would see him fighting Joshua or a top 5 WBO boxer for an interim world title. Regardless he is not ranked with the WBO so neither of those are possibilities.

    Think it'll be Whyte who gets the Oquendo fight if anyone British does

    Fres has been out since 2014 no one even knows he is fit and able to fight.

    Dubois should take a slower route through the ranks. Firstly, we need to see how he reacts to getting hit. No one has hit him yet.
