    Dubois is a beast of a kid, he has been known to do 1000's of press ups at time too
    For a bloke of this size 172 punches in a minute is pretty decent.

    I don't think they need to rush the kid, but is it a case of if he's good enough he's old enough?

    lets see him get a few more wins under his belt and fight for a british strap.
    I can't see any British level fighters like Cornish, Lewison or Allen troubling him at all tbh

    That's fake news Serge and Dubois was hitting a target too.

    Can't compare a welterweight with a giant of a heavyweight for speed

    Imagine if we compared GGG's punching power with Dubois, is GGG a big puncher if Dubois hits 10x harder than him?

    I didn't see anything impressive and didn't see that much power.

    Honestly, based on sound, it sounds like GGG hits harder than that guy. Is he known as a puncher?

    Just because he has more weight doesn't mean he hits harder. That's not how it works.

    Yes obviously I know that Dubois is much bigger than Khan but 1000 punches in 17 seconds>>>172 in a minute regardless of size.

    Check out 49:45 of the below video. THOSE are fast hands for a heavyweight:thumbsup: Wlad was probably about 22 there.

    Yeah that's fast too but it still doesn't compare to throwing 1000 punches in 17 seconds. What Khan did was beyond supernatural. No other fighter in the history of the sport could throw half that amount in 2 minutes let alone 1000 in 17 seconds.

    Dubois is hitting pads with power behind every shot, Khans throwing flurries at thin air, impressive speed but the two aren't really comparable.

    This kid looks really, really good. Very fluid puncher for such a big guy. His ceiling looks high.

    Sure Dubois is a beast and what he did was impressive. But 1000 punches in 17 seconds, regardless if they're hitting thin air or not, is one of the most impressive displays of speed I've ever witnessed, man, insect or beast.

    Dubois looks the real deal, but I would have liked to have seen him go to the Olympics in 2020 and then turn pro after that.

    Definitely feel he is being rushed, the guy is only 19.

    Also he has absolutely no personality, none. I saw his interviews and I actually thought there was something wrong with him at first. Dull as dishwater.

    Think he's just been a bit nervous in some of those interviews. He came across better in others I've seen.

    Fastest hands of all time. A hummingbird can flap it's wings up to 70 times a second, Khan could probably throw 700 punches in a second if he was that small.
