    Miller isn't a big puncher true, but he doesn't need to be to stop Dubois, he just needs to put Dubois under enough duress to quit, which given Dubois past performances he's prone to do. Dubois simply doesn't have the grit or temperament of a fighter.

    I see this fight as a pick'em fight between to C listers. Miller isn't any good either, wins over Duhaupas, Wach, Washington and Adamek don't prove he's any better than Dubois in all honestly and that was back when he was 30lbs lighter and on all PED's, all the time. Now an older, fatter, Miller's best hope is he can withstand the power of Dubois and hang in there and make it hard enough of a fight with his volume to make Dubois quit again, which could happen.

    I find it hard to believe someone that fat can do 12 rounds easy and not be on anything

    Yeah he's probably still using, just probably being a bit smarter about it, and instead of taking all the PED's he can get his hands on and use them 24/7 is just using them in smaller amounts and cycling them. Would not be surprised to hear of him dropping dead of a heart attack in the next 10 years, the combination of steroids and his size is a deadly combination.

    That very well may be true, but a swift nutsack smack to the chin is enough to put Dubois in a 3 day coma.:sisi1

    It’s easy to be on PEDs and never fail a test. You just microdose. Take a microdose at 11pm at night and by the time the next morning comes along (8am) when you can be tested you will show up clean.

    The theory that Miller is off the gear now so won’t be as good is implausible.

    Only a very slight one. If Arslanbek takes a more cautious and measured approach like he did with Takam, Agit has an outside chance of outboxing him like he did with Chisora. But if Arslanbek takes the Captain Caveman approach, the only chance Agit has is catching and hurting him with something in an exchange, like he did with Smakici. But even then, I doubt Makhmudov is fragile enough to be hurt by something from him. Although he did seem to be stunned a few times by shots from Takam, so I'm not sure if his chin is as strong as many seem to think it is. If you want to bet really bad, I'd suggest not dropping too much cash on this one.

    Lucas Browne was teeing off uppercuts for fun v Miller.

    If DD starts to plant and land his own uppercuts, Miller is going down.

    Good riddance too to a serial cheat.

    It's a really good fight but I think it's a fight Dubois is going to win. The juicy version of Miller I think was a problem. This version is going to be easy work.

    The worst thing Miller has going for him is his genetics

    He struggles to lose weight and has a slow metabolism. That's why he keeps getting popped for PEDs

    It's hard to work out the cycle for a guy like that.

    He is also at that age where it's hard to build cardio through natural means.

    He tested positive for milkshakes, pizza and ice cream after the fight.

    And he wasn’t microdosing.
