He said, “November 28, 2020, first loss of my professional career. A devastating setback for me. The intra crushing tough year for everyone with the spread of COVID-19. But, I refused to let this set me back. I will come back and get back to my boxing… Trust me, I will be back with a vengeance.”

Daniel Dubois in talks to hire Mark Tibbs as a new trainer
After succumbing to a loss against rival Joe Joyce, Dubois has parted ways with long-time trainer Martin Bowers who will only work as a manager for the ‘Dynamite’ from hereon. The 23-year-old is keen to join hands with Mark Tibbs, who also trains the WBO super-middleweight champion, Billy Joe Saunders.
Working under a big-wig trainer like Tibbs might just help Dubois leverage on his strengths and improve his flaws to a substantial extent.
