    If this fight happened in 2025-26, who would win? Assuming fury is still at the level he was in the Usyk fights, would he perform better lighter like he was in the first fight or heavy like in the rematch?

    Fury has the skill set and iq to beat Dubois comfortably however with his age now and his body seeming to be giving up on him as well as the elbow surgery’s now rendering his jab almost obsolete,Fury is best off staying retired having only lost to the best man of his era .

    I'd probably back Fury to beat Dubois considering he is technically much better than Dubois and is very good against punchers.

    Although, I don't know if Fury has the physicality anymore.

    Fury has the IQ to neutralize Dubois, but style-wise, I like Dubois in the matchup.

    Tyson Fury doesn't have the courage to face a prime big puncher like Daniel Dubois.

    Let's not forget, he was knocked down and nearly stopped by Ngannou. After he saw what Dubois did to Joshua, he thought "I don't want any of that".

    I'd pick Dubois to KO Fury tbh but Fury has the more skill in he's game so if it went 12 Fury would win you'd think.

    I'd pick the Fury that gave Usyk two tough fights last year to largely outbox Dubois and make him quit late, but he'll never even consider fighting him so who knows.

    Fury is retired, but say he came out of retirement and wasn't completely washed, id back Fury to win it.

    Even if it ended up being an ugly decision, I think Fury is cagey and experienced enough to nullify the physicality and style of Dubois.

    Fury is shot, and Dubois is coming off a confidence crushing KO. Just no,,

    Against the performance dubois presented during usyk 2 i think every journeyman would finish him off easily .
