Overview

  • The rematch is officially confirmed for July 19, 2025, at Wembley Stadium, where Usyk and Dubois will fight for undisputed heavyweight titles.
  • Usyk has split from long-time promoter Alexander Krassyuk after 12 years, and his team has characterized the decision as amicable and conflict-free.
  • Dubois has expressed confidence in victory, arguing that consecutive bouts with Tyson Fury have left Usyk ‘worn’ and vowing to ‘make him old on the night’.
  • Dubois enters the fight on the back of stoppage wins over Jarrell Miller, Filip Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua since his controversial loss to Usyk in 2023.
  • The winner will claim undisputed heavyweight status, with Usyk seeking a second such reign and Dubois looking to become the first British four-belt champion since 1999.
