joshua should chase that Dubois rematch.

That's a very stupid suggestion when a career high pay day is firmly ahead of him

And you'd imagine Gassiev would willing defend against him due to the potential payday

As shot as he is, guy has options

 

Just edited my original post

 

AJ's Rocky 4 moment in Russia with Usyk training him against Gassiev lmao

 

No!! Not at this point. Dubois is currently riding high on his hard-fought victory over Wardley, where he showed heart and redeemed himself, and Joshua has a huge image and financial opportunity ahead of him against Fury.

However, if it turns out that AJ isn't so tragically off and, for example, beats Fury...
That could give him enough of a boost that it might be worth facing Dubois again. Especially since Dubois bears a slight resemblance to AJ. He also likes to get punched in the face, he also gets into trouble, and he can get himself into trouble.

It's important to remember that boxing, and sports in general, is largely about the mind. Confidence in this sport is extremely important. Joshua doesn't have it yet, and facing Dubois now would simply be a shot in the arm, and a pumped-up and confident Daniel would probably treat him similarly to how he did in their first fight.

So, for now, it's a terrible idea, but what if the Fury fight turns out well and Dubois ends up fighting someone else? Why not?

 

This.

If he either wins or has a solid performance, then and only then should he consider avenging his loss against Dubios. Personally, I think that fight is always a case of who lands a hard shot first as both seem capable of chasing the finish.

 

This.

Besides Dubois bodies him one hundred percent of the time going forward.

 

If Joshua was ever going to rematch Dubois it would have already happened and just like mentioned numerous times already nobody connected to Joshua is going to let him anywhere near Dubois when the Fury carrot is dangling so close !

 

Dubois destroys him at any point in his career, I'm afraid.

He didn't just beat him to a pulp and brutally KO him, he OUTBOXED him the entire fight. It was a methodical beat down.

 

Why should we keep unnecessarily delaying AJ V Fury with fights that make no sense at this current moment?

Only way this fight would make any sense is if AJ beats Fury, which would prove he might deserve a rematch with Dubois.

 

it’s also at least mildly winnable. Dubois isn’t. AJ almost left that one on a stretcher. Run it back and he literally will. Just, no.

 

He does have nothing to lose and everything to gain. But that doesn't mean he's got a shot or this is a good idea. Patterson and Frazier had nothing to lose and everything to gain by rematching Liston and Foreman.

AJ shouldn't be getting no shot but if he did it should be Kabayel, Hrgovic, Sanchez or someone like that he didn't fight all those years he was considered a top 2 HW. Give him a chance to prove he was better all along. No Usyk or Dubois.

 

You guys want to see Aj get taken out on a stretcher. Dubois style/power is the last thing Aj needs after that last performance.
