Dubois-Miller is an interesting matchup. Daniel must win

On the undercard of the show in Saudi Arabia on December 23, where the main fights will be matches between Joseph Parker and Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua and Otto Wallin, Daniel Dubois will return after losing to Alexander Usyk – he will meet with American Jarrell Miller.

It’s a great match any way you look at it. After the last match, it cannot be said that there are Dubois fans in Ukraine. And especially Miller, who talks about more than just boxing. But in terms of style, the rivals fit together perfectly.

Dubois boxed well against Usyk. And it even partly fits his style

The fight between Daniel Dubois and Alexander Usik is unlikely to benefit the Briton. All because of the ending he didn’t try to get up. Naturally, he missed the shot. Although the blow from the Ukrainian player’s front hand did not seem very strong, it was accurate and timely, which the opponent did not expect.

A knockdown is clean, but it is entirely up to the boxer to decide whether to continue the fight or not. On this occasion Daniel Dubois decided not to continue. He was conscious when the referee counted the final seconds of the knockdown but chose not to get up.

The problem is that this is Dubois’ second such loss. The first time he lost like this was against Joseph Joyce. But he had a really serious reason. A broken orbital bone is a sore spot. It’s no shame that Dubois didn’t make it to the final because Joyce continued to hit there too. But there was a strange situation in Usik, when the fight was, of course, lost, but not completely. However, the boxer still could not get up.

However, it cannot be said that Daniel boxed badly. Besides the low kick and that ending, Dubois actually tried to throw a right hand to the body. Don’t lose your head and try to hit it. He even staged a coup. Against the background of most predictions of British defeat, the war looked good.

Daniel quickly returns. After two failed doping tests, Jarrell Miller still will not return to the regular boxing card. In general, after that it is customary to disqualify a boxer forever, but it seems that in modern boxing everything works differently.

Miller served his time and returned, but this return is just his style. After a four-year break, Ariel defeated Esteban Bracamonte, Derek Cardenas and Lucas Browne. Yes, you shouldn’t expect exclamations of admiration here.

But he talked too much. He said he was about to return to a championship level he had never been to before. He promised to defeat all the peaks. Here Wilder and of course Joshua also had to suffer. Miller has a special history with Anthony. They were supposed to fight back in 2019, but Anthony made his US debut against another boxer – Andy Ruiz in his first fight and lost. And Miller has been disqualified for a long time since then. In fact, Jarrell’s fight with Dubois is the first more or less big one since his return. But this wasn’t supposed to happen either. The American was supposed to meet Dereck Chisora. Considering Derek’s physical condition, it would still make sense to bet on Miller, who will put a big one on his record. However, due to the financial situation, they could not reach an agreement with Chisora ​​and then Dubois appeared.

Frankly, the young Englishman is a worse option for an American than Chisora. With all due respect to Derek, his days are long gone. He delivers physically, and he delivers only morally and voluntarily. The same cannot be said for Dubois. There may be problems with the morally strong-willed, but physically it is very difficult to hit him. When the Englishman accelerates, it is difficult to stop him.

There are also objective factors. For example, age. Dubois is 26 years old. He also managed to pick a fight with Joyce and Usik. Gain experience of different defeats and different battles. It’s like taking from Kevin Lerena and then coming back. For 26 years old, these are all good fights with significant tics, and this is a plus in any case.

Miller is already 35 years old. Not a critical age for a heavyweight, but still noticeable. At the same time, Jarrell did not box for four years during his career. And when he returned, he beat the sacks or the pilots who had already been shot. This is not even close to Du Bois’s experience.

What else? Dimensions. Dubois is taller and has longer arms. Height of 193 centimeters versus 198 centimeters and arm span of 198 centimeters versus 198 centimeters. Miller has no advantage other than weight. It’s often difficult to compete with Jarrell here. But this makes sense; No amount of doping was documented for any of the top players.

It seems distasteful to an American. However, he does not complain and is generally confident. Where Jarrell can best his opponent is motivation. Whatever you say, Miller will be speaking to everyone attending the tournament on December 23. He even managed to attack everyone at the press conference, even Joshua. But he said he didn’t touch Wilder because they were the only Americans in the tournament.

Who is the favorite?

Everything is clear here. Young and promising Dubois is the favorite to fight against Jarrell Miller. You can bet on Daniel at 1.30. To its rival from America – 3.65.

What can Miller show in this fight? As always. Long-term and systematic pressure, heavy blows, physical domination. That’s what it can do and that’s what’s in it. Leveraging his size is a crucial skill for Jarrell.

Du Bois is the exact opposite. Despite his considerable size, Daniel does not really like power struggles. It can even work as number two. Remember the fight against Lerena. Daniel needs his opponent to open up and then quickly ends the fight with accurate strikes. The guy’s punch is definitely good.

Will Miller open? It will be weird if not. Will Daniel’s punch be enough to win? A knockout is in question as Jarrell’s head hasn’t been tested yet. But overall it should be sufficient.

Unless it collapses morally again. In the Englishman’s case, it is not always obvious when he is psychologically disturbed. And in English, it’s impossible to predict when he plans to withdraw from the fight. If he can overcome the physical pressure that comes after the moral pressure, he must defeat the doping enthusiast. But otherwise the American’s conversations will be so loud that you and I will have nowhere to escape from them.
