Though he outboxed the Brit for most of the fight, the Ukrainian was dropped with what Dubois thought was a body shot, only for it to be ruled as a low blow. The promotion for this rematch \u2013 for undisputed again since Usyk dropped the IBF belt and Dubois picked it up \u2013 is largely being centred around that controversial shot.<\/p>\n<p>John Fury was asked by Seconds Out who wins and he firmly backed \u2018DDD.\u2019<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cGood luck to Oleksandr Usyk, but again, he\u2019s going to go on too long. And I just see Daniel Dubois becoming a multi-belt champion. Because how many fights have you got in you? You come up from cruiserweight to heavyweight, you\u2019ve got these big men banging away at you. He\u2019s only got to walk into one.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s every chance. The man\u2019s 38, 39 years old. Dubois is a big banger and he\u2019s on a roll. Excellent fight with Anthony Joshua. AJ hurt him. It was touch and go that fight until he landed that shot, because I actually thought when AJ rushed in to get him he hurt him \u2026 He\u2019s got this KO power.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf he gets it home this time on Usyk, who\u2019s had the tank emptied twice by the Gypsy King, how much has he got left? Is it the right time for Dubois? I think it is. My money\u2019s going on him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While many fans do believe that this version of Dubois could be Usyk\u2019s toughest test to date, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.secondsout.com\/news\/oleksandr-usyk-on-harder-hitter-than-usyk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Ukrainian has revealed that there is one fighter out there who hit him even harder than \u2018DDD.\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"John Fury has named the man who he believes will defeat Oleksandr Usyk.
