Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois, better than nothing

What a waste of time that fight would be for Usyk. Dubois is not ready/possibly injured. He needs to fight more prospects/contenders, put him in with the likes of Ajagba, Sanchez, Wallin, Ortiz, or even semi-washed up bums like Pulev. Put him in with Whyte or Gassiev, lets see if he wins any of these fights.

 

Thats the way it works !

Fury ducks usyk since he never faced an opponent with such skills and footwork like usyk so fury is unsure , usyk ducks wilder since he never faced an opponent with such a punching power so usyk is unsure .

Both cover behind excuses , be it a mandatory fight with dubois or be it stalled negotations with usyk .

Somehow i understand them - would we risk our career and belts for a dangerous blockbuster fight when whe can easily proceed with other opponents ?

 

It is better than nothing, I mean at least we'd get to see Uysk fight again instead of waiting for Fury to grow a pair.

But Dubois has zero chance, I wouldn't even give him a punchers chance as Usyk's chin has looked nothing but iron. If Dubois beats Usyk, it would be almost up there with Tyson/Douglas as an upset.

 

Better than nithing sums up the state of current boxing.

 

Not before Hrgovic

 

Fury is waiting for the Saudi winter lottery where he has a winning ball...just a question of who draws the next ball most likely Usyk still. If Fury doesn't fight him or vice versa it's a duck.

Although Fury is wary of usyks skills the more Usyk fights these big lumps the more confidence Fury will get. I'm not overly impressed I hoped to see more from Usyk in the AJ rematch he didn't have it.

 

Or eventually you get burned with a cherry pick gone wrong like Wilder did with Fury, instead of taking the 100 million deal to have 1 fight with Brezeale & 2 fights with Joshua.

 

We suffered through Fury-Chisora III because of the promise of the unification. Nothing can possibly be a satisfying bout, except for perhaps Wilder or Joyce.

 

Frank should feed Dubois to Itauma to shadily break Iron Mike's record

Granted Itauma is being brought up on McDonald's employees just as Dubois was

 

5 rounder a decade ago.

I agree Usyk would beat him, but Joyce deserves the shot.

 

I honestly feel like Dubois has a chance here. He'll probably be outboxed for the majority of this fight but seems to me like he legitimately bangs and isn't scared of pulling the trigger like AJ is. If he hurts Usyk he'll punch and get him in real trouble.
