    Fantasy booking !!

    But if I had it my way, I would love to see this fight because I think it would bring interest from a WORLD scale and I think these fighters are honestly kind of on the same level for complete different reasons! 50/50 matchup

    Who agrees with me?
    Who would win the fight?
    Can't happen any sooner than late 2020 based on both fighters current trajectories

    Joshua already got brutally knocked out in sparring by Dubious.

    It won't happen simply because Hearn wouldn't risk a third loss for his fighter.

    Dubious is the fighter Joshua should have been. DDD possess heart, chin, ring IQ and a gas tank.

    It's Dubois.
    You really value him that highly? He's still raw and so freighting young but can he be GREAT?

    Yes, he's the best british heavyweight behind Fury without question.

    He is a complete fighter. He's already superior to Joshua right now and would give both Fury and Wilder something to think about.

    The boy would make mincemeat out of Dillian Whyte, who the entire uk seems to think is something.

    I predicted a long time ago that young Dubious would rise and claim future glory and he's now fulfilling my prophecy

    Possibly, he needs a few changes and tweaks but at 21 he's got all the time he needs, I can see him being a force in 7/8 years or so. He definitely needs to work on his footwork and defence, nothing wrong with wanting to have faster hands either.

    As for your question about him vs Joshua, right now it's a pretty horrendous missmatch. Joshua is still an Elite HW we've just had some questions answered about him, he'd time Dubois and eventually walk through him and he hits alot harder than Gorman does. In 3/4 years Joshua will be approaching the end of his prime and Dubois will be nearing his, that good be a real 50-50, or both couldve been KOed 5 times

    Who knows

    I don't think AJ is an elite fighter and if this fight happened RIGHT NOW it would be 50/50 not in 4 years!

    AJ has a glaring weakness now, but he's still got the best résumé and is a very hard hitter, he was just seriously overrated. Dubois gets hit too much for AJ imo, it's a step too far for him to be taking right now

    I think you're overestimating Joshua's ability.

    Do you really think Dubious would be getting knocked out by Ruiz Jr a man half his size?

    Joshua would simply get knocked out right now by DDD., his head knocked clean off his shoulder in quick fashion without Daniel having to get into 2nd gear.

    If you were fully aware and comprehended the one sided beat down DDD already delivered to AJ in sparring you wouldn't be saying silly things such as ''he would time him'' :lol:

    18 months he'll be in with a champ, maybe sooner, otherwise hes being swerved. I think he walks through Joshua !!

    If DDD hits him yes then AJ goes down.

    The opposite applies too.

    Do I think Ruiz beats Dubois? Yes.
    And I don't see Dubois beating Povetkin, Klitschko, Parker and Whyte
    Maybe, but no more than your overestimating Dubois's, who I've just watch get tagged by someone who's power is no where near AJs and who isn't even as good technically as AJ
    I saw him get caught against Gorman, AJ would catch him and seriously hurt him and AJ is a much better finisher
    There's no proof that happened, just Frank Warren.

    Show us when he got tagged against Gorman?

    As for the sparring it was has been confirmed unless you believe DDD is a bare faced liar

    “Sparring with Joshua was helpful in letting me know what I need to do as a man, and a fighter, and the lessons I need in boxing.

    “[Putting him down] let me know that I have power in both my hands, but other than that I take it for what it is – I learned from the experience.''

    On top of knocking him down and out, he also gave him a few good slaps before he departed back home for rest.
