Daniel Dubois cashed in during a huge co-main event spot earlier tonight (Sat., June 1, 2024) at Queensberry vs. Matchroom 5v5 LIVE on DAZN pay-per-view (PPV) from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, stopping the previously undefeated Filip Hrgovic with an eighth-round TKO (doctor’s stoppage).
Dubois, who came into this fight a betting underdog against his Croatian counterpart, looked good from the opening bell. He certainly had to keep his composure high because of the heavyweight missiles firing back at him, but he did well to make Hrgovic miss and tire drastically over the first half of the fight.
After Hrgovic emptied his gas tank Dubois was able to take full control of the co-headliner. He did some serious damage through the seventh and eighth rounds, which really started to bust Hrgovic up. The referee checked on the heavyweight contender before the ninth frame and ended up calling a stop to the fight. Hrgovic was bleeding pretty badly from multiple lacerations on his face. It was brutal.
