    I think Dokes is all wrong for them, not only was he a blizzard with his combinations and counters but he's also 6'3 with a 78 inch reach similar to Usyk and Ali. Dokes was undisciplined and fell off in the late 80s and early 90s but he may have been an all time great talent

    I wouldn’t be surprised if AJ randomly got blitzed by a combo from Dokes. Dude had a literal blur for hands when he threw.

    Prime AJ and Dubois both stop Dokes for me.

    They get their fair share of criticism, and I am not their biggest fan but they have genuinely proven to be very good fighters on their day.

    I think Dan beats him but make the AJ fight 50/50. AJ never seemed happy against smaller men with quick hands, Dokes on his night was a decent fighter. I'm an AJ fan by the way but an honest one and styles make fights..
