Oleksandr Usyk is set to face Daniel Dubois for a highly anticipated rematch at Wembley Stadium in London, with live updates, round-by-round results, and highlights being provided by Uncrowned. This matchup marks an important moment for Usyk, who aims to solidify his status as a two-time undisputed heavyweight champion by unifying his WBC, WBO, and WBA titles against Dubois, the IBF titleholder.
Usyk, maintaining an impressive record of 23-0 with 14 knockouts, is heralded as the No. 1 pound-for-pound boxer by Uncrowned. He made headlines in 2018 by unifying the cruiserweight division with a decisive win against Murat Gassiev. His transition to heavyweight has been equally notable, highlighted by two victories over Anthony Joshua to clinch the unified heavyweight title, and a historic win against Tyson Fury in May 2024, making him the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999.
Dubois, holding a record of 22-2 with 21 knockouts, faced Usyk previously in 2023 but lost under controversial circumstances when a punch he threw was ruled a low blow, despite much of the boxing community believing it was a legitimate strike. Since that defeat, Dubois has emerged victorious, knocking out formidable opponents such as Jarrell Miller, Filip Hrgovic, and Anthony Joshua, the latter fight taking place in front of a massive 96,000 attendees at Wembley Stadium.
This rematch will see Dubois fighting at Wembley for the second time in a row, standing against Usyk, who is often considered the best boxer of his generation. Fans can catch the prelims starting at 12:30 p.m. ET and the main card beginning at 2 p.m. ET on DAZN pay-per-view, with the main event ring walks predicted around 4:30 p.m. ET.
The main card includes several exciting matchups beyond the highly anticipated Usyk vs. Dubois fight, such as Lawrence Okolie vs. Kevin Lerena and Daniel Lapin vs. Lewis Edmondson, ensuring a thrilling event for boxing enthusiasts.
This match is not just significant for the fighters but also for the sport of boxing, showcasing resilience and the relentless pursuit of excellence, particularly exemplified by Dubois’s remarkable comeback. Fans await to see if Usyk can defend his title once again or if Dubois’s tenacity and recent success will lead him to victory this time around.
