Switched on after footy. Hearn getting spanked by fish eyes lol. Can see Duboi and Zhang winning too for a warrenwash. Great to see both promoters working together though. Amazing what Saudi blood money can do to fix promoter differences.

I had dubois 4-2 down. Until hrgovic ran out of gas & looked relieved the cuts stopped him. Daniel would have got the job done - but through the 1st 5 he was being outclassed

Wilder ko'd. I'd like to see big bang v AJ next
Think that will be the Sept Wembley date, co promoted by Frank and Eddie as they are friends now 😂 with possibly Dubois in a meaningful contest, Wardley or a Joyce rematch, chief support.


And hopefully Wilder goes to the nearest ATM in Saudi, checks his bank balance and never goes near a boxing ring again?

Can’t understand why he turned his back. He’s been fighting long enough to know what’s going to happen.

Great fight night.
All killer, no filler.
Every pro fight he’s ever had, he’s clearly been told ‘Defend yourself at all times’ 🤷‍♂️

I'd like to see DDD vs AJ in around September/October time for the interim IBF
Makes sense that might open the Riyadh season along with the Biviol fight which Turki Al Sheikh announced before the Dubois fight.

Which is a shame because depending on England’s fixture schedule the AJ vs DDD fight would sell out Wembley the Saturday of the first international break.

That was the only negative last night when the camera panned out on the arena with the rows of empty seats.

The Saudis have clearly got the finance to pay for all these shows but not the local punters.

Although he won and he looked decent by his standards, Dubois was walking onto the right hand all night. Do that against AJ and it’s goodnight Vienna

Bums on seats not a priority for the Saudi's

Yarde v Buatsi is a great domestic dust would that will probably be in the UK for those who follow in abit more detail

DDD and Zhang would be an interesting fight now
Agree would rather see that and the winner fights AJ. Really like Zhang, just goes about his business quietly picking up impressive wins. Also agree with your other post about Buatsi/Yarde. Look forward to that. Don’t think either will ever be world level personally but probably the 2 best British fights we have in that division

Would DDD and Zhang sell out a London football ground?

Both promoted by Warren so maybe that’s the late summer fight?

If I’m honest I don’t think it would. Depending on price point of course. Even for me I’d definitely watch it in tele but wouldn’t have any massive urge to watch it live. Neither fighter have massive followings to make it a special atmosphere. I would have thought it would be a banker for the O2

It sounds like Joshua v Dubois 21st September at Wembley for the vacant IBF, I imagine they will put on a great undercard. I would like to see Zhang v Agit Kabayel, Joyce v Bakole and Fabio Wardley v Whyte.

Great fight to be had

Maybe they'll throw Yarde v Buatsi on the under card?
