    We'll see how much Dubois has left. While I was a fan of Miller, his PED usage has left a pretty bad taste. Am curious to see how is looks, but I feel he should win.

    "Fish eyes" isn't "feeding" DuBois to Miller for a cash out. Miller has a high-profile - largely because he's despised by most fans. His prior record suggests he's nothing particularly-dangerous - and his only "accomplishments" were when he was younger and in better shape. Even then, Miller has never beaten a dangerous fighter who wasn't already sliding. He couldn't put away Duhaupas and his "stoppage" win over Marisuz Wach was merely an injury retirement (Wach hurt his hand).

    Miller can be very active and there's nothing wrong with his chin, but I don't think a fatter, older & clean Miller can push the pace long enough against Dubois. And while Miller's punch resistance has seemed good, he's not going to stay on his feet if he gasses out and Dubois hasn't.

    Seems like a pretty savvy matchup by "Fish eyes" with a good "risk/reward" balance.

    I can see what you are saying. I just think miller of 2019 yes has a great chance. Not the current one I could be wrong but the miller that fought Lucas browne for me is not good enough to beat dubois

    Yes totally understand where you are coming from, you could well be right. This current version of Miller I think is very poor and even with the lack of heart dubois will have to much

    What has Chisora achieved exactly? Or Whyte for that matter?

    Chisora has lost 13 fights now, Whyte got brutally KO'd by shot Povetkin, and struggled against Franklin and probably lost.

    At least Dubois is still young.

    Whilst all that is true, they've both beaten multiple guys that are significantly better than anyone Dubois has beaten... Just because he's young doesn't necessarily mean he's destined to go much further - maybe he will a bit, maybe not.

    I never thought I'd ever root for Miller, but I want him to smash the crybaby quitter Dubois.

    I like Dubois even less because he's promoted by the old crook Warren and because of his crying about the referee making the right call on the low blow.

    Dubois is still young plenty of time to rack up 13 losses.

    I hope Warren dont sing some kind of contract with Miller on backstage. I absolultly have no idea who let Jarrell "cheater" Miller fight on this beautifull card... For sure it was not Hearn because he will be idiot and Anthony would whoop his ass.

    But if Im wrong and this is not Warren idea too I hope that Frank make sure Jarrell will be tested for this not 1,2,3 times but 10...
    In that scenario Miller who done absolultly nothing spectacular in Hw division should be much worse.
    And on other hand Dubois prepare pretty good shape for Usyk fight. Off course he quit again which is possibile his weakness but also he move quiet good, was pretty quick and got good stamina. In fight with Usyk You cant show all od that soo easy but with slow 140 kg dude without his "magic power" who knows.

    And also Dubois as someone before remind us is one of the hardest hitting dude today. So...

    Me personal would never bet for Dubois- he show weird weakness too many times before but I Hope he can heart Miller and I will cross my finger to Daniel knock this idiot out.
    Chance for that happend is less than 40% but still we got dude who go forward vs puncher in much better shape. Will be interesting.

    The most likely outcome is fight gets cancelled due to Miller failing a drug test. The second most likely outcome is they fight and Dubois quits.

    Assuming he has the heart to even fight long enough to get to that point...

    Chisora had bs stoppages against Pala and Gerber after both wobbled him and had him on the run. The very next time he landed a decent punch, the Brit refs scurried in to stop the fight so Chisora didn't accidentally get ko'd by nobodies.

    He's not too easy to hit - as long as he's not standing right in front of you trying to throw combos. Which he often is, because his single punches lack power due to his not sitting into them. Why on earth he doesn't use his enormous haunches to power his punches is a good question.

    But, yeah, Dubois stops him. Worst case - round 6 or 7.

    Say what you want about Warren, but with Ryabinsky on the sidelines due to sanctions and the EU constantly investigating Sauerland - Warren is the only thing preventing Top Rank & Matchroom from establishing complete control over the sport.

    Mark my words - you will miss Frank Warren when he's gone.
