    Joshua taking cans to build his confidence didn't help. Joshua trying to be a boxer is also not him. He is a take it to the other guy fighter. He should have jumped on Dubois and not let Dubois do what he should have done.

    And dear lord, they have a rematch clause. So there is a possibility of this happening again.

    Thankfully when it came to this match... this squirrel had 20/20 vision.:deal: I mean... read my breakdown when someone asked me to explain why I picked Dubois by KO.

    Clearly it's far from a sure thing and by no means am I encouraging people to place their bets on Dubois. There's a high probability that Daniel walks onto something early that rocks him and he doesn't recover from it, and eventually gets knocked the **** out. Although if he can work on that quasi decent high guard rock 'em sock 'em poor man's Mike Tyson approach he took later on with Hrgovic, walking forward both gloves up parrying the rights and countering over them with one twos and compact hooks when he gets in close, if he catches AJ with something, especially on the temple, which is usually where Daniel aims for, we might have a repeat of what happened with Fat Andy the first time. Because when AJ gets shook, he usually stays shook. Also, Dubois' stamina has looked fine recently, but there's still a question mark with AJ's, because which of his recent opponents have actually forced him to expend that much energy? Although Daniel cannot just sit there for two rounds like he did with Filip and eat flush rights, although I'm sure his corner is working on a strategy to deal with that, how successful it'll be depends on how disciplined Daniel can be early. In regards to the boosts in confidence for both men, AJ's is a somewhat delusional illusion, he beat a non-boxer on Ngannou, a shot has been in Helenius and a featherfist in Wallin. Dubois just KO'd the iron chinned unbeaten Hrgovic, who went the distance with Zhang and iron chinned Jarrell Miller, who just beat the living **** out of Fat Andy and got stiffed with a draw. Clearly DDD's wins are far superior.

    AJs recovery ability might be the worst there is.

    Why the **** does Hearn have a rematch clause. He wasn't the champion.

    It does actually. All of the top fighters-Joshua, Fury, certainly the limited and overhyped Wilder, even Usyk - are flawed

    Yup, his first KO loss came at the hands of a morbidly obese man barely 6'.

    I felt like Joshua wanted out, but didn't quit bc of the blowback from the Ruiz fight. So he went for broke and got knocked out for real.

    I'm not sure he ever had any. He's been the most overrated HW in my lifetime.
