    He's definitely not the brightest drawing attention to it like that.

    The ref will be a lot more alert to those antics now.

    Logically one should pick AJ by stoppage. DDD has been stopped twice....the orbital bone thing is excusable...but he knows how it feels to be done on the canvas. AJ has been down but always been counted out on his feet.

    But I'd sure like to see DDD win convincingly only to see Eddie H.cry. We don't need AJ-Usyk 3 but a DDD rematch would be ok. Plus if AJ loses Fury would be more likely to fight him, sensing wounded prey.

    Definitely not the sharpest tool in a shed.

    Is Dubois planning on coming in light? Chisora speculating on it and why.

    I don't think so, he looked really big here:

    DD has a good jab but unfortunately its going to leave him open to one of AJs best weapons - the uppercut. Joshua is all wrong to DD

    This is AJ's first proper test since Usyk slapped him up & this is Dubious 3rd opportunity to crack the big time. Joyce fight a little too early and faltered. Usyk fight did his best came short. AJ fight most think he'll come short but we'll see.

    Dubois looks fatter now. Maybe he was more focused on anti doping control?
    Maybe Im wrong but he looks "softer".

    Joshua now talking about 'getting revenge' for the sparring incident with Dubois. Now making it sound like there was actually something to it.

    Bit of an odd pivot from AJ if that's true.

    I want to see what happens of Dubois lands a very heavy shot early, before Joshua. He might not land the harder shot first, but if he does I really want to see how Joshua reacts, and how he fights after being hurt.

    Joshua needs to hurt Dubois early to show him he means business. If he tries to box early and Dubois catches him good, I think Joshua will go to pieces and have real trouble fighting back.

    The Joshua who got off the canvas to beat Klitchko is long gone.

    What part and why? A sign of intelligence on your part would be to actually give an explanation why?

    Not that I'm going to bother reading it. Moron.
