Beat Ruiz for his belt, who went on to beat AJ. If that's average in your eyes I'd hate to see what you consider good.
Dubois hasn't beaten anyone of note, whereas Parker has beaten Ruiz for a world title. The same Ruiz that beat AJ. Seriously... How is Dubois supposed to be considered any good when he got stopped the moment he tried fighting another prospect? Parker has never been stopped, even when put in against hard punchers like AJ (when AJ had a 100% KO rate).
Dubois has beaten nobody ever. As of now he is a total hypejob based on his resume and amateur performance. Hughie Fury would be a gigantic step up for Dubois, way beyond anybody Dubois has beaten. I think HF would take that if Dubois hasn't improved, and even if DDD has improved enough to win I don't think he would win by much.
"Beat" a pudding in Rice Pudding Jr that he would have lost on the cards had it been anywhere but New Zealand. If that's his crowning achievement, as a 30 year old, that's laughable. Dubois will go on to enjoy better wins than that. If you can't see that then that's your problem.
Dubois couldn't even make 12 rounds against Joyce. But do tell me how he'll be a world champion at age 26.
If Dubois had the opportunity to box for a vacant belt now against a pudding like Rice Pudding Jr then he would be. Would Paint Dry have been a belt holder had he had to face Fury or Usyk? He couldn't even lay one glove on Joshua. He's hopeless - and worst of all, boring. Fury didn't become a world champion until 27, but I'm pretty sure his career has eclipsed Paint Dry. The fact you use this metric genuinely made me laugh.
His hands will still be faster but I don’t think he looks good when he is heavier. The weight will hinder his performance in my opinion as I don’t think he can do 12 hard rounds at that weight. I worry for Parker from 8 onwards here and think Joyce has a chance of getting him out in the last third
