Robert Helenius has returned an “adverse analytical finding” in a VADA drugs test taken the day before his KO defeat to Anthony Joshua. Helenius was a late replacement for Dillian Whyte, who did the same.

Usyk Dubois predictions? Another Usyk snooze fest or will he try go for the knockout this time as Dubois is quite chinny?

At the odds, 9-1 I’ve had £20 on Dubois by knock out. Highly unlikely as Usyk too elusive and quick but Dubois does have some power and is the younger guy so thought why nota

Dubois has the power but he lacks the IQ and skill to beat a fighter like Usyk. I have questions around his heart and will,because we have seen him quit before. I think Usyk outboxes him and then the corner stops it in round 9,due to the damage sustained.

Media overhyping a fight with a very predictable outcome. I give Dubois about as much chance as Chisora against Fury. It will go one of two ways, either Dubois gets beaten on points convincingly, or he'll get stopped late on. I guess it will come down to how Dubois approaches the fight. If he wants to fight like Joshua did in the first Usyk fight he'll get stopped.

It's mostly Frank Warren and the talksport cheerleaders that are hyping up Dubois.

I give Dubois more chance than Derek against Fury. Dubois isn't a patch on Usyk in just about every single category. However Dubois is young, hungry and a huge puncher so he'll always have a puncher's chance in a division where one punch can change everything in an instant.

Looking at clips of the Dubois training camp it's clear they're going to try to go for the jugular against Usyk. I'm expecting a pretty good fight tbh.

Another thing to consider is body punches. I suspect Dubois may well to try to stop or at least slow down Usyk with body punches as Usyk has shown susceptibility there before. One massive body shot is just as effective at stopping a fight as a head shot.

Usyk should win but Dubois has been very underestimated since the the loss to Joyce. There was a time when many thought Dubois was AJ's heir apparent and he still may well be. Usyk, Fury, Wilder and AJ aren't going to be around a lot longer.

I still don’t really rate Usyk, AJ’s gun shy these days and Chisora’s easy to elude as all he does is throws a few big bombs every round

Be an interesting test for Usyk tonight against a younger guy that should be engaging continuously

Joe Joyce showed up Dubois as the one dimensional boxer he is

still at HW, it only takes one punch...and Dubois has power

That's all Dubois has, the one big punch.

That's enough at this weight if it connects properly. Logic would dictate that Usyk boxes circles around Dubois but we know boxing doesn't always follow the script and this feels like one of those fights that could spring a surprise. And Usyk is still relatively untested at Heavyweight outside of the two AJ fights so there's that too.

Dubois was hyped up like AJ's heir apparent but he's just a poorer version. Less skilful and with a weaker chin. He's going into this fight as a less experienced fighter than AJ was also.

Usyk will run rings round Dubious

Easy win

Anyone watching the Berinchyk Yigit fight ?
