    I didn't realize he sacked Don Charles, I thought he sacked one of his supporting coaches.

    But it felt like the Don Charles sacking was in the air, based on team Dubois' behaviour before the fight.

    The dad sacked him 100%.

    I remember an interview from about a year ago where the dad said that if Daniel loses, the trainer isn't doing his job well. So if he loses, they'll look for another trainer straight away. Apparently he also wanted to sack Don Charles after the first Usyk fight lol.

    He shouldn’t blame the loss on his trainer.

    His dad needs to put on the Papa Shango mask and start casting some Juju spells again

    Back to McGuigan?

    Not sure who Dubois would go to next, Sugar Hill seems like hes living off Manny's name to be honest.

    Regardless of a trainer's ability, working with Dubois and friends looks like a nightmare.

    Dubois himself is probably fine -- he seems even tempered (any antics you've seen from him were crap the promoter told him to do), and looking at him physically, he clearly shows up to the gym, works hard, sticks to his nutrition plan. Also, given how awkward he seems, I don't exactly see him as going out and partying (that's his asshat father).

    Dubois should fire his father. And I really, really hope his father doesn't have access to his money.

    I agree, but it appears there's more than just his father around but a whole entourage of random blokes who probably bend DDDs ears left and right because he's decidedly vulnerable to persuasion by smarter or more forceful personalities around him.

    If brains were dynamite Dubois he needs to follow his sister and stop the old mam meddling in the corner and calling the shots.
    It's embarrassing.

    Guy thought he really was going to come in better against Usyk

    Limited fighters cannot compete with Usyk & Fury.

    Going to end up a tragic story all this hopefully there's someone out there keeping a little pot for dubois for when he retires don't think his father will leave him with much
