Did Dubois quit???

[imp]

A Fractured orbital bone and nerve damage.

Will all future opponents chase that left eye?

He’s young enough to bounce back but surely the tactics after the first few rounds should have changed.

Move your head and through some feints!

Would you have continued fighting?

Yes Dubois quit but there is no shame in that. He was beaten by the better man and Dubois just did not have enough experience to manage out the last few rounds.

Dubois could have got a more serious injury if he carried on and did the sensible thing.

Far better fighters have come back and he can learn from this experience.

Dubois had little head movement to avoid the jab and could not get his own powerful jab/combinations going.

Take a knee and the loss to come back stronger. He is young enough to improve.

Totally agree.

He always had issues with head movement.

Joyce has an weird style and his jab looked strange at times but it was extremely effective with 18st behind it!

Thought Dubois would have been too frisky for Joyce. But apparently Joyce is not an Olympic silver medalist for nothing.

Those jabs by Joyce looked like point scoring taps but he must be very heavy handed because the damage from them started in round 1. If he can land them on Usyk he will give him problems.

He did quit, but greater fighters than Dubois have quit before now & they went on to achieve great things.

I'm not bestowing greatness upon Dubois just yet, as he hasn't done anything to warrant that, just to be clear.

That eye will definitely be a problem going forwards.

As we have seen with Kell Brook, that damage seems to be lasting, if not physically, certainly psychologically.

[Vendettos]

He quit 100%

But he isn’t good enough.

Joyce is a 35 year old prospect.

I think if he continues in boxing he is going to end up very badly hurt.

The blueprint to beat him is so basic as proven last night.

Flicking jab.
