Shakur Stevenson needs to see Tyson Fury combat IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois subsequent after shedding his rematch towards unified champ Oleksandr Usyk final Saturday evening in Riyadh.
Fury ought to take the combat with Dubois, however he received’t get anyplace close to this apex predator. With the best way Dubois goes to the physique, Fury can be extremely susceptible in his delicate situation.
I don’t suppose Shakur understands what Fury is about. He takes calculated dangers, and he’s not about to place his head on the block by going through the strolling guillotine Dubois. If Fury had been true, Audie Murphy sort, you wouldn’t should ask him twice to face Dubois. He’s not about that, although. Combating Dubois can be unhealthy for Fury’s well being.
Too Highly effective, Too Younger?
That may present loads of braveness on the Gypsy King’s half to comply with a combat with Dubois as a result of after what he simply went by, he’d not wish to endure a 3rd straight loss. It could be a combat that will be straightforward to make, contemplating Fury and Dubois share the identical promoter, Frank Warren.
Earlier than Fury’s two defeats towards Usyk, he’d thought of himself the most effective fighter within the division. His followers noticed him as the most effective, and so they didn’t care that his resume lacked high quality wins.
Many followers would additionally prefer to see Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) combat Dubois (22-2, 21 KOs) subsequent. This may permit him to snap his two-fight shedding streak and assist construct curiosity in a match towards Anthony Joshua.
The best way issues at the moment are, Fury can be going into the AJ combat with a 0-2 document in his final two fights, making their conflict a cash seize. It’s subsequent to not possible that Fury and his promoters would comply with make a combat with the 27-year-old Dubois.
He’s too highly effective, harmful, and too younger for Fury. The Gypsy King was getting harm by Usyk, who isn’t a puncher. The three fights that Fury had towards Deontay Wilder did one thing to him.
Fury’s Calculated Dangers
Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, and Anthony Joshua’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, are serious about establishing a combat between these two subsequent. Hearn stated he’d like for the primary combat to be at Wembley Stadium in London and the second in Riyadh.
Hearn is in a mad hurry to make the Joshua-Fury combat as a result of he is aware of these two guys are too previous it for them to be trusted combating the highest 15 contenders until they had been well-vetted forward of time and deemed 100% protected.
I wanna see Tyson Fury vs Dubois
