    He absolutely was! Can’t stand that **** man. I really can’t. Without those head butt induced cuts and the physical fatigue they caused… Filip would’ve kept landing that 1-2 and eventually can’t PED boy outta there.

    If the referee isn’t bought off for this one, and does his job… dumbois should be DQed by the 4th I’d imagine.

    “I Wuh WiN. bY whATevAh meANs nEsEssAry”

    He’s so stupid he doesn’t realize he’s basically saying he’s going to bend the rules. AGAIN. Because he can’t win against legit fighters within them

    Usyk. The most humble, down to earth, sane, role model HW champ we have had in a long time. How can you not like him.

    I think the fight is about a 50/50 at this point, but I’m pulling for Usyk.

    If that happens and Dubois gets the nod, Frank is going to put him in there with Fury isn't he.

    Usyk all day long.

    Then fight Parker!

    Usyk. I don't want Dubios rewarded for ducking Parker

    I hope Daniel knocks him out. The Usyk fanboys are out of control and I'm sick of hearing them talking about he's one of the greatest HW's of all time.

    Nailing my colours to the mast for Dubois.

    I wish Usyk had retired after the second Fury fight, going out at the top.

    Has Dubois improved since his first bout against Usyk yes i think mentally he has and likely will have improved his ring tactics, will Usyk have improved, i think not, as it is hard to improve on what was nigh on being a boxing genius, plus father time is never beaten he always gets you in the end.

    Is Dubois Mr Personality, Mr Razzmataz, a great public speaker.....No, but he is young, developing as a boxer and has a punch that rattles your brain.

    So Mr Dubois for the win, but if Usyk wins i will not be disappointed, as he is to me a damned legend.

    If for no other reason than I don't think Dubois should be able to call himself undisputed this side of a Parker fight, it's Usyk for me in this one.

    Def. rooting for Usyk. Remaining undefeated and retiring as such is still a big deal. He should’ve done so after Fury 2 but it is what it is - though, like some here, I think that Parker should’ve got a shot first.

    Rooting for Usyk, cause he's class personified and would love to see that scumback Don Charles eat his words.

    I'm cool with DDD winning tho. He's young, it would set exciting match ups in motion and most importantly, we wouldn't need to wait for the new lineal champion to emerge after Usyk's retirement.

    Usyk ... but a Dubois win locks out Fury from stalling the division unless he fights Dubois. Fury trilogy is a bs scenario.

    Totally on the fence with this one. I like Usyk more but Dubois winning is probably better for the longer term health of the division.

    Dubios win guarantees Fury becoming undisputed imo.
