Oleksandr Usyk Vs. Daniel Dubois 2
LONDON, ENGLAND – APRIL 29: Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois face off during a press conference … More
Usyk (23-0 with 14 knockouts) and Dubois (22-2 with 21 KOs) first faced off in August 2023. Usyk won that matchup via knockout in the ninth round, but there was some controversy with that victory. A body shot from Dubois put Usyk on the deck in the fifth round, but the punch was ruled a low blow. Usyk came back to finish the fight.
Dubois and his team appealed the outcome of the fight, but WBA ruled against them, stating:
“After studying all the documents, the conclusions of all the instances and the internal rules of the WBA, it was determined that the appeal does not proceed and the decision of the fight stands with the victory and defence of the champion Usyk.”
Since that matchup, Usyk has gone 2-0, beating Tyson Fury in both outings, picking up a split decision in May 2024 and a unanimous decision in December 2024. Usyk became the undisputed heavyweight champion with his first win over Fury, but he was forced to give up the IBF title before the rematch.
Dubois is 3-0 since his loss to Usyk with knockout wins over Jarrell Miller, Filip Hrgović, and most recently Anthony Joshua. Dubois claimed the vacant IBF title with his June 2024 win over Hrgovic. He defended that title in September 2024, stopping Joshua in the fifth round.
Dubois entered the ring after Usyk’s second win over Fury to demand a rematch.
“I want my revenge! I want my revenge, Usyk,” Dubois said, interrupting Usyk’s in-ring interview. “Well done tonight. God bless, but I want my revenge. Let’s get it! Let’s go!”
Usyk looking for promoter Turki Alalshikh, said, “Make a fight with Daniel Dubois. Thank you so much.”
“Yeah, no problem. I’m ready. Next fight, no problem,” Usyk added when he got back to his interview. “Now I’m going back home for a little bit of rest, but I’m ready.”
The Usyk vs. Dubois 2 matchup, which was reported by The Ring, overcame a potential stumbling block earlier this month when the WBO received a petition to allow Usyk to face Dubois rather than mandatory challenger Joseph Parker.
ESPN has Usyk ranked as the No. 1 pound-for-pound boxer, while Dubois is No. 3 in the heavyweight rankings.
