Dubois has some of the goods, but .....

He should have gone for the body more IMO but it must be tough to pull off when you're in the ring with a genius GOAT level killer. We'll never know the feel unless we get in a road rage fight with Ronnie Pickering.

The coach telling him to thank the crowd was so strange though.

 

I wonder who Dubois will fight next?

Okolie would be an easy fight for Warren to make. Wardley would make for a good matchup, and Bakole would be interesting.

Or perhaps a rematch with Joshua.

 

Some nice entertaining fights could be made against Wardley and Moses. Maybe even Chisora.

Most likely they try to play it safe until the belts scatter due to Usyk retiring.

 

I’ll say this about dubois… he’s strong and can crack. His jab is very dangerous too because of the pop it has and reach. But… against the GOAT… it’s nullified as we saw tonight

 

His biggest problem isn't a lack of intellect, it's lack of a sturdy MANDIBLE!!!

While I'm not surprised Usyk won I was surprised at how Dubois looked, he did what I knew he had to avoid which was waiting on Usyk. Add to that , I got the sense that Usyk had the ability to hurt Dubois with whatever he was landing. I wagered a small amount on Dubois figuring like most that he had improved in his last few fights and that would carry over into the rematch,,,Wrong! He looked outclassed from the get go , confused and hesitant and I thought he looked worse than he did in the first loss to Usyk . Maybe Dubois looked better in his previous fights due to styles and opponents but I thought he'd give a much better effort than that.

 

Usyk is always better the 2nd time around, only exception was 2nd AJ fight.

But I largely put it down to the fact that his country was invaded in the middle of training camp

 

I thought the only way Dubois had a chance was to attack Usyk and fight aggressively like Chisora did but when he did in the 5th round he got knocked out cold.

 

Egis Klimas before the fight ''It's easy to improve when you're not facing Oleksandr Usyk''

Dubois can still do well against a majority of heavyweights.

 

It's easy to say "he should've done this, he shouldn't have done that".
He's tailor made for Usyk, and Usyk had no intention of letting Dubois do anything.

 

He very much seems to mentally pack in if he finds himself in a difficult situation. Not too angry about it either, just, okay, let's stop now, I've tried enough.

That cracking shot has helped mask the truth a bit. A twenty-seven year old who's built like that and been waiting for his revenge should not be so easily disposed of.
