Dubois faces Usyk in rematch for heavyweight title

Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois are set to rematch for the undisputed heavyweight championship on Saturday, July 19, 2025, at Wembley Stadium in London.

The bout will crown the undisputed world heavyweight champion, with Usyk defending the WBA (Super), WBC, and WBO titles against Dubois, who enters the fight as the IBF heavyweight champion.

The build-up has intensified following their first clash in August 2023, when Usyk retained the unified belts with a ninth-round knockout after a controversial body shot from Dubois was ruled a low blow in the fifth round.

Dubois and his team have consistently argued the ruling was incorrect, claiming the punch was legal and should have ended the fight in their favor.

Since that loss, Usyk completed back-to-back victories over Tyson Fury to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the four-belt era, after which he was stripped of the IBF title due to mandatory obligations.

Meanwhile, Dubois rebounded emphatically with knockout wins over Filip Hrgović and Anthony Joshua, the latter secured at Wembley, where he captured and defended the IBF belt.

A public face-off was held outside Wembley Stadium earlier this week, during which Dubois aggressively shouted at Usyk while Usyk remained calm and composed throughout.

The purse is expected to surpass $200 million, with Usyk reportedly earning $132.28 million and Dubois receiving around $71.22 million.
