Dubois vs AJ - Video Post Fight Review

Well done, Rummy. Eddie H will keep,his cash cow going with a couple De Mori like opponents then another beat down finally ending AJ'S career.

 

So, let's get this right. A professional fighter notices his opponent is retreating with hands down and chin high. Said fighter is trained by a trainer who has previously guided another heavyweight whose long, lopping right hand was a crude but effective part of his arsenal. Dubois does not usually throw this punch. But he did. And at exactly the right time. 'Lucky' my arse. Looked like something that had been added to the toolbag and drilled for just the right occasion.

 

Agree to disagree man.

 

If he gets another opponent stupid enough to stand in range with his hands down, I'm pretty sure Daniel can and will repeat it.

 

Dubois looked relaxed and confident in his ring walk. Joshua looked nervous and wound up. The moment the fight started, you could see this carried through to their ring performances. AJ was hesitant, nervous, seemed like he'd forgotten what he's been working on in training, while Dubois just got on with his game plan. And it seemed Dubois was far more capable of taking AJ's power than the other way around.

AJ would be insane to go for a rematch. He'd be Frazier going for that rematch with Foreman. Deluding himself into thinking it could somehow turn out differently.

 

Dubois caught him with a big shot 30 seconds in and it set the tone. I think the ref missing the glove touch knockdown wound up hurting AJ because instead of getting a count and a break at the end of round 3 he took two hard left hooks on the way down. Joshua seemed to get his legs back in the 4th and caught Dubois with a bomb of a right hand but then really misplayed his hand. For a veteran you would think he would have jabbed to set up a follow up or judge Dubois better but he threw the same right hand with his left down and chin up. He even ate the same right hand counter prior to falling for it again. Really poor ring generalship from Joshua

Dubois dominated that fight in a way that I did not expect. Joshua really kept backing out with his hands down and chin up in straight lines. He paid the price for these mistakes

 

It just takes one fight to go from yesterday's news to the new face of HW boxing.

 

The copium is unreal here. He landed the first punch by using his skills and exploiting AJs fear, and he continued to land bombs at will after that. He even finished the fight with a perfect counter shot.

The reality is AJ has only gotten as far as he has today by fighting with favourable terms, constant rematches when he loses and by avoiding the more dangerous punchers in their primes. He's used to bullying smaller and older fighters and got found out by people who were willing to exchange.

 

Nah man you don't understand. Ruiz got lucky cause he landed a counter on AJ's temple. Then Usyk got lucky twice because AJ used the wrong gameplan and Dubois got lucky on Saturday by landing a bomb on AJ's chin. Poor AJ is so unlucky.

 

Looked like Joshua wanted out, from the very first exchange. Perhaps something weren't right in training camp. Came in soft and heavier than usual.
