Alan Brazil gives hilarious response to chaos caused by Daniel Dubois’ cancelled flight ahead of Oleksandr Usyk fight
Daniel Dubois did not have much luck when making the journey over to Poland for his upcoming clash against Oleksandr Usyk.
The Brit had his first flight cancelled and so had to take a £280 taxi from Heathrow Airport over to Stansted.

Dubois then had to sleep in the airport ahead of his flight, which went via Dusseldorf before he eventually made it to Poland 24 hours after he had planned to.
But, talkSPORT's Alan Brazil thinks Dubois could have solved his problems with a NetJet, which is a private jet company.
"Dusseldorf is not far, so if Ryanair is cancelled, you just get a little NetJet or something," Brazil said on talkSPORT Breakfast.
"He might not be in that bracket," replied Brazil's co-host Ray Parlour.

"Rubbish, he's got more money than me," Brazil responded.
He then addressed Dubois' promoter, Frank Warren, and joked: "Frank, get the little four-seater out.
"It's a joke, Daniel what are you doing? You're too big a bloke to fly normal.
"I told you last time I went on Ryanair, I got up and the seat came with me."

Fortunately, Dubois made it in time for the pre-fight press conference and weigh-in, where he surprised fans with his weight.
Dubois himself and his team have made it clear he will be relying on his size advantages and knockout power to beat Usyk and yet he weighed-in lighter than he has since his fourth professional fight in 2017.
The Brit tipped the scales at 233.2 lbs, while Usyk came in at 220.9 lbs, similar to what he weighed in both fights against Anthony Joshua, and so there will only be 12.3 lbs between the two men on fight night.
