    Not for me. He's still to face a D class guy.

    I think Dubois needs a durable fighter in with him, someone like Jason Gavern with a bit of ambition. I reckon a good fight for him would be Sam Sexton right now.

    Fighting this guy tonight for 10k, could have fought Burton for 100k plus been the mandatory for the British title.

    Yarde and Warren...a match made in heaven.

    I think Dubious is in the same situation as AJ. Too big and too powerfull for these standard sized bums. It's impossible to find super-sized bums. So you just have to take a leap in level...a leap in faith. Depending how confident he is just throw him in with Stiverne or That walk earth like god guy. One of these fat plodding ameribums. Just not someone like Brezeale quite yet.

    Problem with guys this big...he has had better sparring sessions than all of his fights and even future fights. He has sparred many top heavyweights already and should know where he stands.

    He probably does. Doesn't count for much if you match the two up though, does it?

    Think he just turned 20. Of course there is tonnes of time for him but still it would be better if he fought a reasonably tough journeyman or something that could give him rounds or something.

    Dubois was sloppy in one of his first fights and got hit a bit. But he's improving with each performance and his power is world level in my opinion. But whether he can take a shot, can last a few rounds - has stamina remains to be seen. But his actual boxing ability isn't that great, he's a plodder but could end up being at world level if his chin holds up.

    Proved nothing tonight, could still be on same level as David Price.

    Too early to judge.
