    i think that's his father's entourage. have you seen Dubois try to interact with other people? he seems like he'd mostly prefer to be alone. introvert.

    That's what most others seem to do, why not him too? LOL!

    Joshua could pass on some trainers names to him.

    I tried to sack Laura Charles for three decades, in a way. There was a sack involvement I was attempting.

    Now that the relationship is over, looking back at it, Don Charles did some decent work with Dubois. I'm not sure another coach could have done better.

    He made some subtle but tangible improvements to Dubois game, like his wedge defense, and increased his confidence which is an understated part of a coaches job.

    Considering the difficult circumstances around Dubois senior, he actually did quite well especially with Dubois being a relatively limited if good fighter.

    I'm not sure another coach could get more out of him with Dubois' camp as it currently is.

    Don Charles wasn't even on a percentage but a flat fee (according to a reliable source). That's how desperate he was. He was making peanuts compared to what he should've been raking in.

    only because Dubois is clearly abit slow, Charles would be talking to him in the corner and he’d look to the father

    Dubois has put himself in a really bad situation .

    After a stunning fight against AJ ( many powerpunches , aggressive flexible style ) he performed very weak on his next fight (stationary , no dangerous powerpunches , hardly any body shots , poor defence ) .

    Should he on his next fight continue weak people will say he is severly overhyped , should he out of a sudden perform strong again people will say his poor performance was intentionally .

    His team braking apart tells also a lot that something is seriously odd after his last fight.

    Lets wait how it developes

    It’s not a new trainer he needs, instead a visit to that Wizard of Oz fella to ask for a heart would be better advised. Excluding black lives matters, never has a fighter so voluntarily taken a knee. Eight knockdowns suffered, seven times he’s taken a knee…

    You can’t train a Chin. No trainer can fix DDD’s Glass Jaw.

    Amazing to think he's still only 28

    If he can keep his head on and stick around he'll be a top dog given Usyk, Fury are retired by next year.
