    So, Dubois is now the IBF World Heavyweight Champion? Embarrassing. Belt should remain vacant until it’s won in the ring :duh

    Who cares, it’s worthless either way when it’s been unfairly taken from an undisputed champion.

    The fight doesn’t need a plastic belt attached to it, and if anything it takes away from the fight as nobody watching is seriously going to believe the winner is a ‘Heavyweight champion’.

    I'm going for AJ mid round KO/TKO. Dubois has a fair punchers chance though.

    I'd agree with that. Dubois just has to weather AJ for a while and then land something on him - it could go either way after that. If AJ gets shots through like Hrgovic did though, it could be a quick evening.

    Would love DDD to win but have to favour AJ by stoppage.

    WAR DANIEL!

    Even better I’ve just watched an interview with Hearn saying ‘great news that Dubois has been elevated to full champ as now AJ would have beaten 3 champions to become a 3 time heavyweight king’.

    Right because Charles Martin was one of the greats wasn’t he Hearn? Parasite.

    The reaction from Hearn, Bellew, the YouTube media, DAZN commentators and all the others would a sight to behold if Dubois won. For the same reason, Dubois has nothing to lose here - he can only gain recognition win or lose.

    Stop being bitter, Hearn has done more for the sport than any keyboard warrior in here. Hearn made the unification of WBA, IBO, IBF, WBO possible and was going for the last one till wilder turned it to "catch me if you can".

    Yeah Charles Martin was a champion, Wilder knew what made him to duck Martin . Deal with it!

    Say all you want but Usyk became undisputed cos some people worked towards it aforetime. Else no way you become undisputed by beating only 2 people

    Buster Douglas beats Tyson (1 fight) becomes undisputed.
    Holyfield beats Douglas (1 fight) to become undisputed.
    Bowe beats Holyfield (1 fight) to become undisputed.

    That is in one division alone. I would get some air mate, you are talking nonsense.

    The final sentence is bizarre - if the 4 belts are held between 2 people, then beating both results in undisputed. Fook me Jack Catterall, after a very unspectacular career to date, would have been undisputed if he got the nod in Glasgow against Taylor. Yes Taylor done all the hard yards but it is all about dethroning champions and he deserved it on the night.

    Usyk cleaned out both the cruiserweight and heavyweight divsions and the Hall of Fame will be calling soon.
