Really good match up. I feel Dubois is better offensively than Wardley plus Wardley being a slow starter may be the deciding factor. Also, Wardley hasn't been in the ring with anyone of Dubois's power. Dubois early TKO in a shootout.
**** it, I am going with Dubois! Everyone keeps shitting on him and It makes me want to root for him. That being said, Dubois is a sucker for that right hand and unlike Hrgovic, Wardley has real power in his. Its probably going to be a FOTY candidate, and I will be shocked if it goes over 6 rounds.
fun fight. wardley has a question mark on him on how well he does with a fighter with real power like dubois. he can't be eating those shots all night but the same goes for dubois. Wardley has come through major adversity in his recent fights while Dubois seems to crumble when things aren't going his way. I could see wardley finding a way to get through a round when he's hurt and come back to do damage while i can see dubois sitting on the floor waiting to get counted out when things arent going his way. im leaning towards wardley but not by much at all.
Interesting matchup, might actually go to this! I’m favouring Dubois to get the job done but wardley one of those guys you cant bet against! The way I see it, and why I find the fight so intriguing, is they are 2 very different fighters-Dubois has the experience and the amateur background but his heart & self belief sometimes lacking whereas wardley -the exact opposite I feel like Dubois needs that good start, if he doesn’t get it here he could be in trouble, wardleys speciality is keeping his belief down the stretch, really looking forward to this
If Dubois beats Wardley, he becomes a three-time heavyweight champion, which puts him above fighters like Riddick Bowe, Michael Moorer, Mike Tyson, George Foreman, Vitali Klitschko, Wladimir Klitschko, Anthony Joshua...
Have to say I'm surprised that so many people are backing Dubois. Wardley is everything that Dubois is not when it comes to intelligence, chin, bravery, never-say-die attitude. I think this is the worst kinda guy he could face, but credit to him for getting back in there with a tough opponent. Even if I think he doesn't deserve a title shot.
Wardley will shatter Dubois' glass jaw, utterly obliterate that fragile mandible! This is a guy who got bounced off the canvas like a basketball against a cruiserweight for goodness sake !! https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/daniel-dubois-has-a-glass-jaw.696063/ Wardley will put this china chinned clown to sleep!!!
