    Rematches favor the more skilled boxer.

    That was the lamest shove I have ever seen. Looked like he was sensually feeling Usyk out.

    Dubois could win despite the fact that the vast majority don't give him a chance, Usyk isn't getting any younger, Dubois is noticeably better than in their first fight and is full of confidence after beating three good opponents in a row...

    Usyk looks like a mobster from the 80's in the tracksuit.

    True, although you are referring to young mobsters in those times. The old guys always dressed well. So did John Gotti most of the time. Russian and Ukrainian mobsters I'm not familiar with. Although I did run I into crooks in the Ukranian government and they were just slobs.

    As someone else said, DD beat 3 guys who stood and traded punches. Usyk won’t fight him that way.

    I'm hoping you're being sarcastic otherwise this is one of the most absurd comments I've seen in recent times.

    Dubois is thick as a pallet of wooden planks and does whatever his handlers tell him to do without thinking whether it might be a good idea or not.

    Real odd choice for an insult there, considering how the last fight went.

    Yeah Usyk's gonna eat him again.

    He’s going to come with everything in the toolbox this time, headbutts, nutshots, flying headers maybe sprinkle in some leg kicks to add some drizzle. So anything can happen. A supposedly minor cut from an ‘accidental’ head clash can make a fight one sided. I won’t write off Dan winning so easily.
