Dubois was on great run \u2013 three big knockouts in a row: Joshua, Hrgovic and Miller. And he goes in there and gets absolutely plastered, iced out, by Usyk. It just shows you. \u2018Oh the big fight is Fury-AJ.\u2019 AJ got ironed out by Dubois, properly, and Usyk\u2019s just ironed out Dubois. It\u2019s quite pointless.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u2018The Gypsy King\u2019 then revisited the theory, not held by many, that he won both Usyk fights and was robbed on the cards. He believes he is the only heavyweight to be able to beat the Ukrainian, and wants to do it at Wembley next year.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe only man who\u2019s been able to beat this f***er is myself and been ripped off. I\u2019m not sure what\u2019s going on but it\u2019s GK all day, every day. Still the top dog. Still the top G. Beat him twice and I\u2019ll do it again. Three times. Wembley here we come.
