    Which hurdles will he encounter for you before seeing his pupil fight for a world title?

    Hrgovic will be there and Joyce . If he tries to cross out Joyce now, its a risk,he probably loses right now. Fast tracking him isn't very smart at the moment you also have Usyk and Joshua even with a losses could be a roadblock ,theres also T .Fury should he stay committed to boxing and the underestimated Wallin still improving . I see he wants to get there bf others also gain experience ,you have Sirenko as well with one win away in meaningful fight going to be known real soon. Id say hold him back and let him fall in place with Sirenko, Ajagba and Mahkmudov for a 2021 run, these are guys that hes actually competing with now ,these guys are about 2 years from knocking on titles shots..

    Hes going to have to fight at least one of the mentioned here before a title shot ,its risky either way the hurdles are Hrgovic, Usyk ,T. Fury and Joyce at the moment considering AJ wins in Dec he doesnt have to worry about meeting him to get a title shot or if Fury wins the WBC belt he is removed from other rankings and is not in the equation .

    Well since he's already British and Commonwealth champion he should take on one or two of whatever top British level opponents are available to begin with. Then he should take on the winner of Joyce-Huck for the EBU title. Perhaps defend it with a Takam or Chisora. Then he can get some Inter-Continentals or the WBC Silver belt against the likes of Yoka or Hrgovic. If he can do that seamlessly he'd be a well proven top contender and surefire future champion.

    First thing Warren needs to think seriously about is making better matches for Dubois or risk seeing him unprepared for the big step up like Yarde was.
