Overview

  • Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois will face off for the undisputed heavyweight title at Wembley Stadium on July 19, 2025, uniting all four major belts.
  • Usyk, holding the WBA, WBC, and WBO titles, and Dubois, the IBF champion, return to the ring 19 months after their contentious first fight in Poland.
  • The 2023 bout ended in controversy when a fifth-round knockdown by Dubois was ruled a low blow, allowing Usyk to recover and secure a ninth-round TKO victory.
  • Since their first fight, Dubois has claimed the IBF title and successfully defended it with a knockout victory over Anthony Joshua at Wembley in September 2024.
  • The rematch, announced by both fighters and promoter Queensberry, represents a chance for Dubois to avenge his loss and for Usyk to reclaim undisputed status.
