    Don't be surprised if it is Fury. Turki gets what he wants after all...

    Don't forget Bellew, Chisora, and Joyce in WSB.

    Just saw the results. Could Dubois have fought any more scared?

    Yeah I remember seeing Dubois during one of the backstage shots and thought he looked incredibly nervous.

    I said all through the build up to this one that Dubois' newfound confidence would be gone by the third. Truth be told though, I think it was gone before the first bell even rang.

    While Usyk winning wasn't a surprise , how bad Dubois looked did surprise me. He looked tentative, confused and as you said scared to initiate exchanges. I said before the fight Dubois couldn't wait on Usyk , he had to get off first and pressure him and he did neither. After the 2nd round the only thing in doubt was what round Usyk would end the fight. One other thing,,is it me or did practically every punch Usyk landed on Dubois sort of shake him?, he looked tight ,tense and in a sense overwhelmed . Usyk fought a great fight no question, but Dubois and his corner made things very easy.

    I think Frazier had the style to beat Usyk. Joe would be all over him, chopping at Usyk's body. Joe was an exceptional fighter, he just ran into Foreman.
