    This probably deserves a thread of its own, but lots of rumours over the past 24 hours that Don has been sacked but is contractually obliged to work the Dubois corner on Saturday night.

    Hatman, Michael Benson and Spencer Fearon have all picked up on it in certain YouTube interviews. Dubois himself has said he doesn’t know where he is..

    Steve Goodwin also heard Dubois has a busted right hand. Too much smoke coming out of that camp.

    Nothing like fight week drama! , eh! This could be some Don Charles mind games, a serious fallout, a mixture of the two, he's actually ill, or a complete rumour!

    If there is any truth in the right hand rumour then it really is a non event

    Bunce talks about it here. Timestamped.

    The reporter also asked about Dubois Dad doing Voodoo, Bunce: "I don't doubt that for a second, some sort of Caribbean thing his dad might be doing, adds a bit of spice, bit of lunacy"

    Dubois can't use his hard right at all so the main fight is a non event.

    The only option Daniel Dubois has is to repeat Mark Potter's left hand miracle punch 25 years ago and I don't believe that will happen.

    I respect your input which is always accurate - is he definitely injured?

    You are right. I meant, of course, Danny Williams, who, with his shoulder dislocated, landed a miracle punch :)
