He fought Usyk and lost, which no shame in that, but the guy has W's over AJ, Wardley, Miller, and Hergovicz. He's also only 28 years old and now in his prime. He can quietly clean up the division if he stays focused.
He's also had a lot of promotion, along with multiple world title shots even directly after losing one. He's been very, very fortunate. It will be interesting to see if he can hold onto those titles and who he fights next.
No shame in Dubois losing to Usyk twice, who has a strong case for being the GOAT HW, if not Top 3. Outplayed by Usyk in two fights, but very arguably KOd him in the first fight. Usyk, Miller, Joshua, Hrgovic back to back is absolute insane. Dubois is a warrior
If it was just the win column he'd be number 1. If IBF didn't give him the Hrgovic title shot they expected him to lose he would have been screwed. The first 2 losses would have kept him out of the mix and he added a third one which in turn took the asterisk off the first Usyk loss. Hrgovic took Dubois lightly and might end up being the better fighter. Dubois could have lost that as well. Having 2-3 losses early is a real problem today and Dubois overcame that but it's still there. Wardley is not that good and Dubois beating him proved nothing for me. He's still got the best win column but that was up to the AJ fight 2 years ago.
