    He is a wonderful fighter. To come back the way he did after his rocky moments against Fury and almost stop him and to come through that brutal round against AJ and come back and dominate him shows his heart. There are no problems with Usyk's ticker!!

    So, I don't tend to look too deeply into stare offs and press conferences and the like, and I certainly shouldn't when it comes to Dubois because he's an incredibly awkward dude. But all that shouting, the posing and then the obvious signs of being deflated when he got zero reaction?

    Gotta admit, it is making me feel even better about my prediction, and I've already been feeling pretty ****ing good about it. Ever since the fight got announced, I've said Dubois' newfound confidence would end up biting him in the ass. I think he'll come in hot, find no success with what has been working so well for him since their last fight, then be completely drained mentally by the end of the third when he realizes that Miller, Hrgovic and AJ were **** poor preparation for Usyk.

    Said it since the fight was rumored, gonna stick with it through fight week. I'm saying Usyk stops him around the mid rounds, probably even before the midway point.

    Not long now! :ggg

    ...oh, I think Usyk is having a kip on Saturday. Have been saying this since fight was made. History will prove me right or wrong as it always does...!

    I didnt read it that way. Pissed off with the Usyk chants, starts his own, zero fear in his eyes, zero doubt, even the little smirk shows how little fear he has. This might sound dumb, but I hope he hasn't overlooked Usyk! A little fear is essential, I hope he hasn't bought into his 'destroyer of men' narrative too deeply.

    What I would like you to do, start prepping on how Daniel Dubios sees life.

    What’s those questions gonna be?

    Start thinking about the youth.

    It's one of the universe's great japes that we do in fact have a world championship boxing judge named Cheatham.

    Back the youth, ask the questions the youth require to be asked.

    Usyk represents a certain demographic, a certain age bracket.

    I am backing the youth here man. Been backing Dan since the fight was made. So wasn't sure why you were making that point...

    Usyk will not blow his load trying to KO Dubois, so if Usyk wins by KO, it will be late round.
