    Yeah, getting hit on the head can affect your balance.

    It’s not a “glass chin” but I worry for his punch resistance in general.

    Nothing like him.

    AJ got hit by Wlad and survived. Dan gets hit by a nobody and is all over the place.

    Dan is like the Poundland version of David Price.

    Maybe you're right, it looked really weird though.

    His knee ligament is definetely shot, so in the circumstances it was a good recovery. Just hopefully he won't be out for too long.

    Laid Dubois at 1.1 and managed to get a cash out at 11.3 (betfair) should have got more but the market was not populated enough to clear the bet.

    I thought Framptons comments after the fight was poor form tbh. Would he had said that about any other trainer?

    Dubois said in the ringside interview that he didn't feel his leg and it was 'the shot' then McGuigan starts nudging him to tell him to shut up. The replays show him turn his ankle. I tend to believe Dubois, he is not the sharpest tool in the set and probably too honest for his own good. The shot scrambled him, he may well have also hurt his knee but his head was not clear for whatever reason. Lets face it whatever it was physically Dubois looks vulnerable, a better heavyweight would have taken him out last night.

    AJ Vs Wlad was a long time ago.
    That was before Ruiz took his soul

    I agree on that, he is a good bit below the top level at the moment.

    if it was his ligament or tendon he would know all about i he would be in agony and he wouldnt be smiling after he would be worried takes ages to heal and would likely need operation mcguigan talking shite of course its not injiury he might tell folk it is now but were no stupid ffs

    So? Didnt he beat Ruiz? Dubois has no chin.

    Even in the last exchange of the fight he got rocked. His power wont be enough.

    Even though I think Joshua can't take a decent shot these days I will have to agree with you that his chin isn't as bad as Dubois.

    Poor Frank's heart must have split in 2 watching that last night

    Daniel Dubois suffers from Anthony Joshua syndrome and needs to find a Charles Martin type opponent to win a World Title as he is not beating anyone decent.

    Frank should cash him in Vs Joyce or fury. I doubt he is going to belt level until the current gen retire and if no one elite replaces them.
