Daniel Dubois v Trevor Bryan ordered by WBA

[Master]

Calling.out Whyte is stupid, it should be Joyce.

[Spicoli]

Complete steamrolling that one. That jab is very harsh! Any idea of how deep if at all Dubois is into King contractually for this shot?

[Dark Lord Al]

dubois is garbage, Trevor Bryan a WBA regular world champion sums up this media product garbage.

[Master]

Dubois is still young and can improve. He is below the elite heavyweights and can use this meaningless title to get some more experience as well as raise his profile.

Dubois left hook is new and he is getting more agile in the ring. His jab has always been good but now he is landing it more often.

I feel sorry for Joyce who should have got this opportunity.

[Syntax Error]

Dubois stops Bryan with a huge left hook in the 4th round. Easy work for him and Bryan was terrible.

Joyce must be angry that Dubois has gone ahead of him for this shot!

Agree about Joe Joyce.

I feel for him because he must be thinking what was the point in fighting Dubois?

I suppose he just needs the right promoter and/or manager to maximise his opportunities.

Maybe Dubois might fancy a shot at redemption by making his first defence against Joyce, if that can be made and providing he doesn't have to rematch Bryan?

As we all know, rematch clauses seem to be all the rage these days.

Failing that, the WBA will probably order him to defend his title against Fres Oquendo in about 2037.

Daniel Dubois ‘set to sue Don King’ after promoter DID NOT PAY Brit star for KO win over Trevor Bryan

BRITISH boxing star Daniel Dubois is reportedly SUING legendary promoter Don King having not been paid for his win over Trevor Bryan.

The 24-year-old blasted out his heavyweight rival in the fourth round in Miami in June to win the WBA 'regular' title.

A huge left hook ended the contest prematurely as the Londoner extended his near-perfect record to 18-1.

But according to Big Fight Weekend, while Dubois may have left with the belt, he didn't leave with any of the purse money owed to him.

It has been said that Dynamite sued Don King Productions in Florida on Monday night alleging breach of contract.

The news outlet claims King, 90, is yet to pay him for his victory in the States - of which he is owed 45 per cent of the $3,116,001 [£2.56m] purse, which amounts to a whopping £1.15m.

And it has been stated in a copy of the lawsuit which has been obtained by Big Fight Weekend, Dubois is suing for between £380k-£771k.

The big difference in the sum of money is claimed to be because Dubois is unsure whether King paid the sanctioning fees to the WBA.

Dubois' attorney Leon Margules told BFW on Tuesday: "The fighter hasn’t gotten paid.

"And when boxers get in the ring and risk their lives the most important obligation of the promoter, the sanctioning body and the commission is to see that they are paid, and that hasn’t been done here."

Following Dubois' stunning win, he called out compatriot Dillian Whyte where he declared he will be "getting it".

Speaking immediately after claiming the WBA's secondary strap, Dubois roared: "I am ready for whoever is next.

"I believe this will instantly make me a better fighter now.

"When you win the world title they say you become next level so names like Dillian Whyte and Joseph Parker are all on my hitlist.

"I will fight whoever Frank [Warren] puts me in with next. It has been amazing.

"Coming out here and winning a world title is what I dreamed of as a little kid and now it has finally happened."

Don't they put the money in escrow, especially dealing with a King contract. Have to say not shocking at all and equally concerned on what Dubois now has tying him to future fight deals with King in order to get that shot. A King specialty for decades
