    Man, I was rooting for Dubois, but I really thought Dubois didn't have what it takes to beat AJ.

    What a pleasant surprise.

    Kudos to those who predicted this -- I was totally wrong.

    You seem to be oblivious to how significantly and rapidly Daniel has improved.

    Working on the fundamentals undid him. Six months into training your brain is still flexible.

    Trying to remake yourself into a boxer 6 years into your pro career leaves you betwixt and between and having to think about everything. Nothing comes natural anymore.

    They should have accepted that they had an aggressive puncher on their hands, that got him the medal and the early belt, and put preserving that above all else. Let the skills come slowly with experience.

    Of course, still... AJ, Dubois and Fury landed clean on a few occasions. Usyk never once seemed truly even buzzed.

    Looks like Joshua came into the ring concussed again. Apparently Davis Price jumped through the ropes in sparring on the last day of training camp, and gave the bodybuilder a good hiding for speaking about his boiler job! Lol

    Very pleased for Dubois. Gotta love his composure at the end, knowing AJ was looking to go big-right crazy and then timing the counter.

    Did AJ kick off or make any crazy statements in his interview?

    Major kudos to DDD. Regardless of how you picked this fight, it was a 50/50 fight up until the very end. Either fighter could have won because of the power each possesses. I'm glad Dubois pulled it off, though.
