    Peter Milas is fighting Tony Yoka on September 10.

    Very sad that a promising young heavyweight like Milas was left inactive for 2 years. Had he been fighting regularly the past two years I would pick him to upset Yoka, but not now.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he upsets him regardless, Yoka is a brutal KO waiting to happen.

    Reminds me of that time those two fat fellas at the WWE broke the ring a while back.

    Rabbit punch. You can kill a man with a rabbit punch, that's why they are illegal.

    Yoka is a HW version of Amir Khan, I've been saying it for a long time.

    Blatant. Dubois sucks and I don't see him improving very much. 40 year old Pulev would still probably jab him into submission.

    Hard to tell from this small clip shown in slowmo. Dubois is still pretty raw and needs work, I think you are right Pulev at this stage might be a bad matchup. To be fair after the loss to Joyce probably not a bad idea for him to be fed a few low level journeymen before stepping up again.

    I am on record saying at least a dozen times before the Joyce fight that the man is not a real professional fighter. Everything he does in the ring seems kind of tentative and half-assed, like he is partly fiction. Just a muscle-man that someone taught the basics of the sport.

    If Bakole v Hrgovic gets made next then there's no issue with both of them having a warmup fight for me. Better than them doing nothing.

    Hughie Fury vs Christian Hammer on October 16 in Newcastle with Savannah Marshall & Lewis Ritson on the undercard. It appears they all have cut ties with Matchroom.
