Frank Warren has given an update on Daniel Dubois and his injury. The promoter said he is healing well and is on course to make his comeback soon. He even gave a timeline for his potential return to the ring.

Experts touted Dubois as the next big thing in the heavyweight division, and there was a lot of excitement surrounding his first major test against Joe Joyce. However, ‘Juggernaut’ showed his experience and beat Dubois, causing a nasty injury.

In conversation with Boxing Scene, Warren said, “The doctor is happy with the way the fractures have healed, He has to go back to get his retina looked at again, but hopefully he will then be OK to go again then and get back into full training.”

Given the severity of the injury, this is good news for boxing fans. Many expected the 23-year-old to be out for a significant period. Dubois himself will be eager to return to the ring and prove his worth after all the criticism he faced.
