I thought Benn was going to get KO'd there. Brilliant fight.

The discussion kicks off with Joshua's shocking defeat to Dubois, where many fans express disbelief over his performance. Critics highlight Joshua's form since his losses to Usyk, suggesting that he appeared gun-shy, lacking the aggression needed in the ring. There is a palpable sense of anxiety among the commentators about Joshua's future in the sport, especially considering the multitude of knockdowns he suffered during the fight.12
As the conversation unfolds, opinions diverge on the implications of Joshua's performance. Some argue that this may signal the end of his career, emphasizing the need for him to reassess his approach or contemplate retirement. Others criticize the lack of urgency in his corner, feeling that they should have pulled him from such a one-sided contest earlier.34
The sentiment shifts slightly as fans begin to discuss potential next steps for Joshua. While some believe he may not have the skill set to reclaim his status, others hold out hope for a comeback. Dubois, credited for his impressive performance, raises questions about how Joshua will deal with future matchups against formidable opponents.56
"Dubios destroyed him there. That was a brilliant performance."
"Thought he was going to stage a comeback them ooof."
Verdict
Overall, the thread reveals deep concerns regarding Joshua's boxing future. While Dubois is praised, Joshua's viability as a top contender remains in serious doubt. His next steps will likely determine his legacy and potential return to form.
Wow that was pure entertainment
Eubank by unanimous decision. 116 - 112 seems a bit much.
Thought it was closer than that but Eubank put in a shift in the last 2 rounds.
Probably the right decision. Not that wide mind
No idea where Eubank got that energy to throw literally hundreds of shots in those last 2 rounds
That was outstanding. One of the best fights for a long time. Lived up to its billing for sure.
Thought the fight was much closer and surprised how the judges seen it as a 4 round win. Still think the right man won but only by 2 rounds potentially 3 max.
Overall, a terrific fight and I just hope we get a rematch.

That was a great brawl! Amazing fight. Not technically great but really exciting and that's what people want from boxing. Big respect to Eubank he absolutely worked his arse off to win that. Sheer determination.
Great fight from two lower-tier fighters. Credit to both. Not sure about a four-round swing? I had Eubank by 1 or 2 but I wouldn't have argued with the draw. Benn caused him so many problems and caught him a few times (outside of the head clashes).
I thought Benn won, but I'm out of sync with most people, so maybe I'm just skewed in my scoring. It was cracking entertainment for sure!
