    No he cannot. The only way that Dubois wins more than 2 rounds is if Usyk is completely shot. Dubois just isn't very good and he will quickly unravel once Usyk begins to time and pepper him with punches.

    If since the Fury rematch, Usyk has turned into a cokehead alky with gammy knees and a broken big toe. I might give Dubois a 30% chance. Although that might be a little too generous.

    Usyk wins every round against Joe in a boring fight. Even if he loses to Dubois he beats Parker. He does everything Parker does better and Parker can't hurt him.

    I think Dubois is cleverer than he lets on. I didn't expect to see him pull his trunks down after the match to show his naval to spark the "Usyk's trunks were too high" controversy. He also had more success at the lead hand game against Usyk in the first few rounds than I thought he would have. He's a murderous puncher fighting on his home turf with the whole deck stacked in his favor. Youth and explosiveness can sometimes overcome technical holes. I definitely see a path to victory for Dubois.

    I'm trying to get some value bets in with Usyk, and you're scarily accurate with your predictions...

    How does Usyk do it this time?

    I am not saying you are wrong, but Joe earned a shot a long time ago. To me, a guy who earns it deserves a chance to make his case.

    I get it, and I like Agit, but I feel Parker has done more to earn a shot and is a better win on the resume.

    You're absolutely right and I don't want to see Usyk fight Paul either, no matter what sport. Entertaining him as an acceptable opponent is already appreciating him way to much and damaging the sport because it makes boxing look like a circus.

    That being said I don't expect Jake Paul to have any Chance in any fighting sport on which Usyk would choose to compete against him. Usyk is just too good in basic movement and orientation. There are people that are just really athletically gifted and usyk also seems to train in a general way. Look at him dancing for example.

    So I have no doubts that usyk would play with Paul in an mma match, too. Against a regular top mma fighter he would obviously be the underdog, but paul should be no problem.

    I’d imagine by the time he’s fighting Paul in mma he’d be retired from boxing and if he had the belts they’d be fragmented already.

    He may whip Jake's ***, but it is a risk I'd rather he not take, unless he retires from boxing first. He could fight Eddie hall for all I care.

    As much as I would find it amusing to troll fans if Jake beat him, it wouldn't be worth the black eye to the sport. MMA fans are still over joyed with that lump getting beat up by Francis. We don't need another black eye. Though I do agree that Usyk should batter him
