    Daniel Dubois should step in for Mike Tyson against Jake "Sweet Money Hands" Paul.

    Who buys the PPV then?

    Main event is the definition of a don't blink fight, I think both will be cautious early until a big punch lands.
    I slightly favor Zhang as he is the more versatile fighter and has power in both hands but it could go either way.

    Yeah I have been thinking Zhang but when I woke up this morning I just started thinking Wilder could do this if he is dialed in.

    He knocked an exhausted Dubois out with a jab - Usyk drowns and exhausts his opponents as much mentally as physically, and I think a lot of his punches opponents don't always see coming

    Yep.

    Hrgovic didn't take this fight seriously.

    His chin didn't let him down, but his heart and lungs weren't ready for a Dubois that didn't fold when the Croat thought he would.

    I think that Hrgovic could have weathered that storm and stopped DD late, if he had been in better shape.

    Given the importance of the fight to Hrgovic, it's mind-boggling that he would come to the ring in less than tip-top condition.

    I can´t wait for the day when these platforms realize that having multiple choices for commentators is what fans like. Oh, and a no commentary option.
    We have the tech, it´s easy to implement.

    My local TV station carries several UFC cards and boxing cards, for a while they had a language option that had no commentary. It was ****ing glorious.

    Farrah Fawcett had bigger, and nicer, legs.

    Watching Usyk and tonight in Dubois, heavyweights need to learn to have better gas tank.

    That was the turning point for me. The sudden difference in energy was stark.

    Congrats Dubois.

    I really need to see a chicken dance. Dear boxing gods please treat us with one and let it be that knitting needle legged baffoon from Tuscaloosa.
