Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
I'd fancy Dubois to beat Wilder by KO, Dubois has arguably got one of the best/hardest jabs in the division, has serious KO power to match and looks a better boxer each time he fights.
Warren fancies it too by the sounds of it.
“By the end of the year, yes!”: Warren open to Dubois vs Wilder within a year

Who would you pick?
Re: Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
Ain't no way Dubois fights Wilder inside a year, lock down or no lock down. It'd have to be worth it for a start, whats Wilder got to offer or going to have to offer in the next 12 months? He needs to fight Fury or AJ to have anything to offer, and win. He chins AJ, Fury is all over him for all the marbles. He beats Fury, AJ is all over him for the same. Ain't no way Frank is shoehorning Dubois into that.
On paper Dubois is the best prospect out there. But that's what he is, a prospect. I think even a damaged Wilder would be too much for him. Too big a job right now.
Re: Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
I'm the total opposite and think Dubois would be too much for Wilder, I could see Dubois backing him up straight away and just bulldozing his way to a KO faster than Fury did.
Dubois throws loads of hard body shots as well as that thumping jab.
The very two things that Fury did when he smashed him 😉
Dubois by KO 5-6 rounds for me.
Re: Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
Hey listen, NOBODY rates Wilder less than me, but come on! If he can’t beat Dubois, he’s worse than even I thought.
Re: Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
Wilder is a poor heavyweight champion, Ali must be spinning in his grave, Tyson must have his head in his hands thinking how can Wilder have that many successful defences.
AJ dropped the ball, should have unified and become undisputed champion against Wilder. AJ would have sparked him.

Pele Reid was Frank's world beater back in the day, almost identical matchmaking to Dubious.
I seem to be the only person in the world who believes Skelton's son will smother him to death. Can already hear all the cliche excuses - "boy vs man, he didn't have the experience, he needs rounds in the bank not knockover jobs, etc"
Re: Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
Ah Pele Reid ;D
It was all going so well until he ran into Julius Francis. Then they properly finished him off by letting Orlin Norris at him. Get him a tiny cruiserweight with a name to beat up. Doh!!
Re: Daniel Dubois v Deontay Wilder - Who Wins?
Have to think Dubois 'wins' just by getting him in the ring anytime soon being this early on. It's a gain next to nothing lose any remaining cred scenario for The Phoenix King splendor or whatever moniker Wilder is going by this week. That said can you picture Wilder fighting a Kevin Johnson a year and a half in? I can't.
