    Obviously Dubois would be the justified favourite but Wardley is a very live underdog; Dubois was dropped and rocked by Lerena, and he was also wobbled by Lartey earlier in his career. Wardley has undeniable power and with his unorthodox style may get through with something.

    Never heard of either, where does IBF find these bozos? In the pachinko parlor?

    Whilst it may look a mismatch on paper this is a fight I’d like very much to see,Dubois has all the pedigree,experience and more behind him but Wardley would relish an opportunity like this and has absolutely no fear as well as having the power to trouble anybody !

    This could well be the outcome,a proper huge British match up and honestly either fighter could win it,Wardley will certainly not be fazed by fighting Dubois . If Joshua does duck the Dubois rematch if will be interesting to see the Joshua die hards take on it .

    Any proof he is on PEDs?

    Dubois quit against Usyk, that wasn't a punch resistance issue.

    He was VADA tested for both the AJ and Hrgovic fights. Do you really think they'd allow Dubois to go into a world title fight against cash cow AJ without getting tested?

    VADA confirmed that everyone on the 5v5 card (Dubois vs Hrgovic was on there) got tested.

    In favour of who lol

    Genuinely not sure if you think it's Dubois who gets splattered or Wardley?

    Should’ve put Wardley vs Joshua, Dubois vs Kabayel.

    He's improved under Don Charles imo.

    I don't think it's a mismatch, I know Wardley is unbeaten and has huge power but Dubois still has a chance of winning if he can keep Wardley at range.

    Wasn't Dubois's last fight when you said the exact same thing but against Dubois?
