Wilder smashes both eye sockets in a few rounds. Problem is when you have any bone structure weakness, that ATG right hand is going to seek and destroy it. No question.
Wilder looks to have better punch resistance and is tougher. When you look at how he performed in Fury 3 it was admirable. Even if Dubois lands something big early. I think Wilder would ride the storm. Once Wilder lands, I just don’t see Dubois weathering the storm. It would be a great fight. Wilder has the slight edge.
I want to see this lad succeed and chucking him in with Wilder would be disastrous. He's not ready. The Whyte fight would be a good fight for him or even someone like Hrgovic.
Wilder has more than likely been badly damaged by Fury. Otherwise I would give Daniel little chance. Now, I can’t see him taking a big one from Dubois. Despite the Joyce defeat, bizarrely I don’t think we actually know how good Dubois chin is yet either. Joyce was peppering him with jabs mainly, but he didn’t really sit down and let go with the power shots which were probably coming soon if Daniel hadn’t taken the knee. Wilder will have to be favoured because of his speed and ability to land straight right hands down the pipe early, but it’s most likely whoever lands first at this point.
I rate Joyce very highly but Wilder is a bit of a nightmare match up for him. Edit. Just noticed this thread is about Dubois not Joyce lmao. Same answer, Wilder flattens Dubois
I don't understand it either. I honestly think Dubois' power is overrated by some people here, pretty much based upon him walking through Nate Gorman and Trevor Bryan.
Wilder would knock him out. Wilder has more heart can take a better shot, is quicker, hits harder and is more unorthodox.
