Can Dubois win the Usyk rematch? (VIDEO)

I'm a big Usyk supporter, but Dubois has youth and momentum on his side. He could KO Usyk.

 

I agree...50/50 fight

 

I am rooting for Usyk. I do not believe their first fight was close or that the punch was legal.

That being said, something tells me Dubois is going to pull this one off. Age and momentum can go a long way. I wouldn't be surprised if Dubois does pull it off. No shame on Usyk as he's 38 and already an ATG.

 

Usyk is also at the age where if he keeps going, father time is going to get him one night in the ring. If that night shows up when he's in there with a puncher of Dubois's caliber...

I still rank it more like 60/40 in Usyk's favor and I'm rooting for him, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if it ends up going sideways for him. Happens to most greats at the end. One day you're Muhammad Ali in there with Floyd Patterson... and then before you know it, you're Muhammad Ali in there with Larry Holmes.

 

As usual it's a good video. DuBois has some momentum and I was on board for maybe the torch gets passed. Liked a couple of posts alluding to Father Time. Then I recalled the source of that momentum since Usyk made DuBois quit. Made. Him. Quit.

2 might-have-beens that are now pretty much low-end gatekeepers and a neurotic has-been/almost-was. Maybe DuBois had a come-to-Jesus moment and he's a serious hard case now, but Usyk made DuBois quit.

Father Time is indeed undefeated, but he's not on a schedule. He shows up when he feels like it. That visit is DuBois' only chance imo and I find it unlikely just now.

Best of luck to both men.

 

Despite Dubois clearly having improved immensely, his last 3 fights - Miller, Hrgovic and Joshua - have been against fighters that have stood right in front of him (Joshua with his chin in the air). As long as Usyk doesn't massively age overnight I think his movement and ability to throw shots from all angles will again be too much for Dubois. Usyk UD this time.

 

Dubois defends very poorly, his defense never seems to get better, that is not the way to go against a guy who can throws crazy volume of punches, from a variety of angles. If Usyk feels some pressure he can probably dance away for a while, recoup and get back at it again.

And that power jab couldn't miss Dubois, that Sh!T packs a punch.

 

In the last 2 years Dubois has tactically improved , but more importantly he's improved mentally while in my opinion Usyk has diminished, the 2 years from being 36 to 38 is extremely large. During the video I was thinking of this being a Louis Schmeling II type fight when Rummy brought up that very fight!
I'll take that as an omen, Hopefully I can get good odds, Dubois by stoppage over a faded Usyk

 

Whilst Dubois has got better, I feel it still takes Usyk getting old overnight for him to lose this one, and I think that Usyk feels he has something to prove in this one - maybe with Dubois coming in the ring aftre the Fury win, the low-blow or whatever, but I get the feeling that Usyk doesn't like Dubois very much, and I think that is bad for DD, Usyk will be laser-focussed in this one.

I think Usyk still has the skills and conditioning to drown Dubois and make him tentative and doubt himself - though things could very will get interesting if the ref allows Dubois to go low and use his head (like he did all night against Hrgo).

Usyk UD or late TKO for me

 

Dubois is going to quit again. I’m not worried about Uysk looking old, he’s the most well preserved 38 year old there’s ever been at HW.

 

I like how Dubois has redeemed himself from being a quitter and at the same time he has developed (personality-wise) into a proper British weirdo. Unfortunately those are Usyk's specialty.

 

I have consistently said Dubois knocks him out and my opinion hasn't changed. Both Fury and AJ landed dangerous blows at points in their fights, and Dubois is now likely better than both. Usyk would not have got out of the 9th had that been Daniel in AJ2 and he can't give someone as heavy handed as the kid three rounds or whatever it was like he did in Fury one...Usyk was much better then, and didn't dominate either of those men, men coming to the end of their career.

I'd not be surprised if Usyk wins, even by stoppage, but I've always felt Dubois was going to be something special and I suspect this might be the night he makes his mark. Can't wait, it should be a great fight while ot lasts. I don't see it going 12 either way.

 

Dubois was aiming for low blow all the time in first fight. I doubt he dont try this again. But this time they probably will cry before fight to reffery to no react to this kind of shoot because Usyk is cheater...

Im really afraid that Warren do whatever is need to win this fight. Even in controversial way. But Usyk is genius. We cant give anybody bigger chance to win with him than 40% Even when he is older.

Hope he dont lose it. I got massive problem with Dubois as champion. Not because I like AJ but he dont act like champion imo.
Fight with Parker is still weird situation that no one explain clearly.
And he is just boring person. When Joshua was on top we got 5 thead per day about his situation, people talking about him and more.
Dubois is just ghost. I dont see much info coming from him and about him even when he is king of the jungle.

 

Usyk by KO in 7.
