Former world heavyweight champion Johnny Nelson does not believe in the British heavyweight Daniel Dubois in a fight against the holder of the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight titles of a Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk.

“I would like to give Dubois a huge chance, I would like to say that because I always support the British, but in reality I do not give him a chance. In fact, at this stage, I saw gaps in him as a fighter. I always support the British, but if you ask me a question, then I answer it. I think there's a hole in Dubois's armor right now, and if he fights someone like Usyk, it won't work for him.

Usyk would find him, break his heart, break him himself. Dubois has a puncher chance. It may sound unpleasant to his fans, family and entourage, and Dubois is a good fighter, but there is a gap in his armor that Usyk will open and use it. He's too smart to let Dubois off the hook. Yes, Dubois has a puncher chance and that's it," Nelson said in an interview with Seconds Out.

Recall that the battle between Usyk and Dubois will take place on August 26 in Wroclaw, Poland.
