Daniel Dubois Vs Wilder?

If you're ready, you're ready.

Maybe I am guilty of overrating Daniel Dubois, I don't know.. All I can say is that I'm a huge fan of his. Let's see how he gets on against Joe.

 

smart money has to be on wilder.
regardless of his resume, the man is a wrecking ball.

 

We haven't seen Dubois really get smacked yet.

When that happens and we see the reaction then we can start to get an idea of what he is all about.


We saw it the other night with Buatsi, all these fighters being hyped haven't been genuinely tested yet, when Buatsi got in the ring with a legit LHW and started getting hit, he didn't look that great.

 

Yeah I agree with your sentiment but Dubois isn't ready.

If your saying he beats Wilder then your also saying Dubois is top 5, which he isn't. Give the lad a chance.

 

Dubois chin hasn’t even been tested yet. Lartey rocked him badly with a hook, are we gonna pretend that Lartey is a monstrous puncher now?

 

Wilder. I think Dubois is very clumsy from what I've seen so far, at least relative to the skill level people want to put him at. I can't see him doing enough to put Wilder away without eating a big right beforehand.

 

We don't know much about Dubois. I suspect he is better than Wilder is now but it's far from proven.

 

I think Dubios has some stuff going for him. He's shorter than listed, and to me tightly wound. By my guess he won't have a good chin either.

Yet he can hit and has better than average skills on offense.

 

Your hatred of wilder is making you over rate a prospect lol . although if Dubois turns out greater than wilder. I'll give you props

 

Yeah, he's not terrible, I'm not saying that. But he just looks a bit, I dunno, clunky. Sort of Michael Grant-esque. Maybe I'm selling him short. I'm open to changing my mind on him.

 

By the time this would ever likely happen, Wilder will be 36+ and shipping quite a few injuries and be on a steady degradation of his skills and athleticism. Dubois will have gotten stronger and more experienced.

If it was to happen tomorrow I'd edge it to Wilder, in a year or 2, Dubois. Wilder has lost much of his aura now and the inactivity and camp disruption isn't helping him.

 

Minds will chance once we see this one happen. Being UK based really helps with the promotions. If the winner looks shaky, I san see Fury or AJ rushing to meet him.

Yes, Dubois is not smooth. You say Clunky, I say tightly wound.

 

Yeah, I get what you mean. He's coiled and that sort of explosiveness can make you oversell on shots sometimes.
