Overview

  • Dubois confirmed he has ended his 18‑month partnership with head trainer Don Charles after last month’s fifth‑round KO loss to Oleksandr Usyk.
  • Manager Sam Jones says Dubois felt he needed a change and is steering a rebuild, with a meeting set with promoter Frank Warren next week.
  • Jones indicated a December return is under discussion, though no opponent or date has been finalized.
  • Multiple outlets report Dubois is expected to link up with Tony Sims at Matchroom Gym, a move not yet officially announced.
  • Assistant coach Kieran Farrell has departed and Charles said the split was on good terms, as scrutiny continues over a pre‑fight family gathering before the Usyk rematch.
