How long do you think it would take Dubois to ruin Helenius?

    I enjoy this kind of dialogue, true salesman talk and there’s nothing wrong with that, it’s what keeps the cogs turning.

    I think I'd be picking Usyk to win by TKO 7. Dubios seems to get injured a lot, and Usyk is definitely capable of exploiting that. Of course the smart money would be Usyk via UD, but there's good value in mid fight stoppage.

    Perhaps, I heavily favour Usyk to win. But 14/1 or 16/1 for Dubois 1-6 is too long for me. There are a lot of ways you can lose a boxing match, as Joyce found out vs Zhang (who was 25/1 to stop Joyce 1-6).

    Trevor Bryan was garbage, not even top 20, probably not even top 30. His win over a shot Stiverne was embarrassingly bad.

    Yeah Kownacki would be blasted out quickly, far too easy to hit and would have no answer to a bigger more powerful Dubois going right at him. He struggled with an old faded Arreola, Dubois is nothing special but ordinary fighters have beaten Kownacki.

    To be fair Ruiz struggled with an old faded Arreola.

    I made some good money on Zhang. Had both TKO and Rd 7 covered was gutted they didn't let the 7th start.

    This deserves a bump.

    Dubois did better v Usyk than Helenius would have.

    Helenius is already ruined. There's nothing to ruin there.
