Dubois is in danger of becoming overrated again.
He could have gotten up and continued in the 1st fight
Just chose to quit
He's had some good wins since, but he's been either roughed up or rocked during all of those wins.
Usyk by late stoppage or wide margin on points unless father time catches him.
+1

Inb4 HJ claims that Dubois is better than peak Mike Tyson and that Eubank Jr would beat mid-90s Roy Jones.
The mess tyson would have made of dd would have been hilarious

No harm in trying again I guess.

We have seen bigger upsets.

But I never claimed I have a clue :D

I am a very casual fan pretty much only following heavyweight boxing and I know about 10 big names. So if they want to fight, bring it on.

I also believe that despite all analysis an upset is always on the cards. That's why we watch, no?

By most accounts Dubois is a top 3 fighter in his division.

3rd best fighter beating the 1st.

I assume there have been many bigger upsets in the history of boxing.

I'd wager Ruiz beating AJ was a bigger upset.

Well yes.

But I would not trust the judgement of someone who didn't know that Usyk and Dubois had boxed less than 2 years earlier to know that :)

He has two arms mate so yeah he has a chance but I think he loses every round and quits again, just a feeling i can't shake.
