Lennox Lewis praises Dubois for beating Miller

“Daniel and his team should mix opponents and their styles wisely. Today he has definitely regained his confidence,” said the legendary Lennox Lewis after an important victory Daniel Dubois (20-2, 19 KOs) over Jarrell Miller (26-1-1, 22 KOs).

The recent contender for the IBF/WBA/WBO heavyweight belt experienced difficult moments in the middle rounds, but overcame the crisis and forced the referee to stop the fight in the final seconds of the fight.

“Dubois came back to life in the later rounds with a good straight left and footwork. He got his second wind and in the second half of the fight he looked like a really good boxer. Such a performance will now definitely give him confidence. He had not used the left straight so often before, but it brought him success today. He also learned a little about himself in this difficult battle. Next year he will be hunting another difficult, but perhaps different, opponent. Because every opponent teaches you something new. Miller wanted to test Daniel's heart, but Daniel showed character and intelligence in the ring. It was Miller who should have worn Daniel down, but instead he tired himself and Daniel stopped him,” Lewis added.
