    I gotta admit, I'm shattered by the outcome - ONLY because I didn't end up putting a bet on Dubois as I had contemplated.

    I actually got up too late to watch the whole thing - literally only caught the last 20 secs or so.

    It appeared that Dubois absorbed several decent right hands quite well just before lowering the boom on AJ. I need to see the full fight from go to whoa. Congrats to Daniel.

    Just wanted to post somewhere that it bothered me that the anthem of The House Of Saud preceded "God Save The King" in London in a Heavyweight Championship Boxing match fought by Marquess Of Queensberry rules.

    Roy Jones jr Vs tarver ?

    You know how idiotic you sound saying a fighter can't get a rematch just because they got Kod especially in the circumstances where he obviously had the other fighter hurt but got clipped being too eager

    Hold on there, give it some time. Usyk has also beaten Dubois, and if DD goes on to have a significant reign, and I think he will based on the fact that a lot of the other good guys will be retiring, then its over time a good boost for Usyk.

    Also, AJ will be back. When Usyk retires, the belts will be divided in four, and he is GOING to be walked into one. Both of these guys can still add to the resume.

    Those were 1 shot KO's. Joshua's KO losses were one sided blow outs and long sustained beatings that shorten careers or leave a fighter completely shot afterwards.

    Sadly, it seems AJ is finished.

    I think 96000 people seeing him dismantle Joshua like that will secure him the bag now mate the casuals will love him now and think he is top dog on the back of being 'robbed' of a KO against Usyk even though anyone with a brain cell knows he got stopped by a Jab. Maybe that night and the flak he recieved galvanised him as a fighter because since then he is probably the form fighter in the HW division excluding Usyk.

    So how does Fury have the superior resume?

    Many had him in the top 10, including Ring and TBRB.

    The heavyweight division is on FIRE!
    Usyk upset Fury and unified the division.
    Dubois won his last two fights via upset.
    Parker won his last two fights via upset.
    Kabayel won his last two fights via upset.

    Then we have Zhang, Bakole, Ajagba, Hrgovic, Whyte, Wallin, Miller, and many more like the corpses of: Joshua, Joyce, Chisora, Wilder, Ortiz, Ruiz.
    Lot´s of interesting fights to be made, especially at the top level.
