Daniel Dubois vs Joe Joyce: Who wins?

Dubois is the on-paper favorite for this fight, and with good reason. His wins have been nothing short of dominant recently. While Joyce is just as dominant, there is something a little more spectacular about Dubois’s approach to fights.

He has kept himself active, having fought 8 times in the last 2 years. This was highlighted by the 5 fights he took in 2019.

Joyce may have lesser pro boxing fights, but he is packed with high-level experience. He is an Olympic silver medalist and has heaps of knowledge about the sport. He also has a two-and-a-half inch reach advantage.

Dubois is on a freight train right now. While Joyce can stop it, the chances of Dubois adding his 16th pro boxing win are pretty high.
