    Would Dubois be to inexperienced at this stage. I'd give him a good chance of winning right now. Whytes chin isn't all that.

    Nope he ain't done enough to earn the shot at shyte
    Fwank knows how this works
    Whyte as a different road and does not involve ddd they need to focus on Joyce

    Why don't ddd and fwank push for the wilder fight
    As no one wants to see fury wilder 3

    Pointless thinking about it at the minute. Whyte has got a big money PPV coming up then he’s mandatory for Tyson Fury. No Dubois fight is happening any time soon.

    Dubois is currently 3rd with the WBO (shock). After a win against Joyce and Usyk’s mandatory he’s probably going to next in line for Usyk/Joshua/Fury.

    So on both sides it’s nowhere near happening.

    If he stops Joyce which I don’t see then that definitely deserves a shot against whyte

    I think Joyce vs whyte is a better fight though

    Dubois is definitely a talent but he is at least 3 to 4 fights away from challenging Whtye also providing he gets past Joyce

    Whyte beats Dubois as I type.

    3 years down the line, it's the other way around.

    Really can't understand why people are even attempting to make noise about this fight.

    It's a million miles away from happening right now.

    I like both fighters.

    It’s early for Dubois and it doesn’t make sense for either Man at this point.
    However, hypothetically if he can take a good punch, I think Daniel will KO Dillian late.

    Why are people ruling this out as a possibility in the next year to 18 months especially if Fury and Joshua have 2 fights. Outside of the big 3, Dubois is probably Whytes biggest payday.

    Dubois is still green give him a few more fights against actual high level opposition and he might beat him.

    This.

    People forget DDD is still young and he hasn't got a big amateur education to fall back on. He struggled against Johnson and Whyte would have both the dirty tricks and prime strength,.

    Challenging Whyte for what?

    He only holds the Lineal PED Pudding Title
