Daniel Dubois' trainer gives injury update after heavyweight's scare in win

Daniel Dubois' has had scans on his knee and may have suffered ligament damage according to his trainer Shane McGuigan.

Dubois made his latest appearance last weekend at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when he took on Kevin Lerena in the chief support to Tyson Fury's routine win over Derek Chisora. It was a difficult evening for the British heavyweight who was dropped three times in the opening round but managed to survive to the final bell.

The rising star then came on strong in the third round after regaining his composure and rallied to detonate a barrage of punches to close the show himself. After the fight, Dubois appeared to be struggling with damage to his knee, and spoke about the impact it had on him being unable to stay on his feet in the opening round.
