    Dubois would handle Wardley easily enough.

    Dubois would be far too powerful for Wardley

    Be good this, while it lasted. Both smashed up Gorman, let them go to work on each other…

    60/40 in dubois' favour.

    He looks like a beast, but it seems that caroline is the alpha of the household lol.

    Surely Dubois. He failed the heart check vs JJ but passed the chin one. Was surprising to see him getting wobbled daft in the last fight

    dubois doesn't have the mental toughness and heart

    he'll be taking knees again when he feels Wardleys power

    He should rename himself Colin Kaepernick

    Sorry mate but that’s just utter bollocks that he has no heart. The guy had a potentially life changing injury, he’s a professional athlete and it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that his career would have been over that night had he continued. He got the stick at the time as a quitter but based on the actual facts and evidence of his injury those people owe him a huge apology- he 100% did the right thing.

    He’s come back and not looked the slightest bit gun shy with three early KOs including one where he had to get up off the deck 3 times.

    Do you actually think he had a life threatening injury? He was in deep waters with JJ in a close fight and wanted out.

    Loosing your vision is defo life changing. Distance perception etc all goes to whack. I' not so bothered about that. Just like Brook I imagine once your vision goes you fear the worst. He couldn't continue, fine. He'd actually boxed OK for most of the fight with the only shot Joyce landing being a very accurate jab. Could DD have done more to make this less of an issues? Probably yes,

    The last performance is worrying - again an injury involved so it's not as easy to judge. But hurt badly and did well to come back to win but there is a touch of fragility about Daniel - he could be this generations David Price.

    I think DD V Wardley is a very open fight. DD the better fight overall and probably has more power but Wardley can't be ignored in this one and DD seems easy enough to hit with power shots. 50/50 for me.

    I agree with what you say but to me Dubois has never looked like he really wants to box and when he wins its more relief that its over. Never looks comfortable at all.
