    Same old Dubois, but we shouldn't expect any noticeable differences so soon.

    Did well to stop Dinu so quickly, but where was Dinu's movement, he used to move pretty well but he just backed up in straight lines and that's always a recipe for disaster vs Dubois who is lethal when he has you on the ropes.

    Good performance by Dubois. I thought he might get him early. Dinu is a very creditable opponent for a comeback fight, especially after suffering a serious eye injury, but Dinu couldn't take Pulev's power and Shane McGuigan is an excellent trainer who will get the best out of Dubois.

    Don't think he was interested in anything more than a payday. Seemed he could have gotten up from the punch to me but didn't want it?

    That is like the 5th current heavyweight WBA belt, isn't it?

    He does need more variety in his work, he's too predictable, everything just comes off the jab. Against this type of opponent it's enough but when he fights at top level he'll need more than just jab, jab right hand.

    No idea how a fighter coming off a loss would qualify for it

    Dinu was much better ten years ago. But inactivity and perhaps age has caused a severe decline.

    A disappointingly poor effort from Dinu today, he really should retire now.

    Didn't seem interested for me, interestingly was able to hit Dubois with a few jabs to the head.

    23 for a heavyweight is very young. He has time on his side and also has the backing of his promoter.
