Daniel Dubois vs AJ Carter 16.09.2017
British heavyweight sensation Daniel Dubois continued his meteoric rise in the boxing world by recording his fifth consecutive knockout, just five months into his professional career. This latest victory, however, stands out as the most brutal, highlighting Dubois’ devastating power and drawing comparisons to the legendary Mike Tyson.
The bout took place at the Copper Box Arena in east London, on the undercard of the Billy Joe Saunders vs. Willie Monroe Jr fight. Dubois, arriving with an unblemished 4-0 record, all wins by knockout, faced off against AJ Carter for the Southern Area heavyweight title.
From the opening bell, it was evident that the fight was a mismatch. Dubois wasted no time, knocking Carter down twice within the first few moments of the match. The third and final knockdown came just 48 seconds into the first round. Dubois landed a massive right hand that sent Carter crashing face-first to the canvas, prompting immediate concern from ringside medics.
Paramedics rushed to tend to Carter, who appeared unconscious following the brutal blow. He was given oxygen in the ring and eventually regained consciousness. Though he was able to leave the ring on his feet, Carter was expected to undergo a thorough medical check-up at the hospital.
While this wasn’t the fastest knockout of Dubois’ career—he previously dispatched Marcus Kelly in 35 seconds and David Howe in 40 seconds—this victory was undoubtedly the most vivid demonstration of his formidable punching power. Dubois showed restraint and concern after the knockout, not celebrating his win while the medical team attended to Carter.
Daniel Dubois’ performance solidified his reputation as a rising star in the heavyweight division. With each bout, he continues to showcase his explosive power and relentless aggression, making him a fighter to watch closely. As Dubois’ career progresses, fans and analysts alike are eager to see how this young talent develops and whether he can maintain his knockout streak against more formidable opponents.
