Great jab, great feet, great punch variety and has sledgehammer power.
Seems mature and grounded for a 20 year old too.
What is he 6ft 6 tall and 18 stone already so physically no one's really got an advantage over him except Fury.
I expect him to win a World title within 3 years.
With all the recent posts about Dubois, I thought I'd take a quick look on you tube while I had a spare 5 minutes. before I watched it, I thought that the above post was a bit OTT and knee jerk. But after seeing him, I can understand why.
Take away any of the PED's rumours and going strictly on watching his fights, the Kid is a breathe of fresh air. He's light on his feet for a big guy, decent head movement , good punch selection and combinations and just looks a star in the making.
having said that , in the early days , it's always difficult to judge because we don't realize how good (or poor) the opposition is.
I'd rather watch him than Whyte , Chiz, Bellew and the Haye of today, that's for sure.
Oh we do, we know all too well these days, which is why dinosaurs like Warren can't get away with flogging 20 mismatches before making a decent fight.

Dubois has fought two china-chins - Howe and AJ Carter - that Warren took criticism for because of their safety. Now i'm not saying Dubois can't punch but when you're odds-on to be slaughtered inside 3 minutes it doesn't take a boxing expert to work out there's something abnormally wrong with the opponents punch resistance.
Christ! You're more cynical than I am!
