Usyk, Dubois Rematch Nears for Undisputed Title

Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois are in advanced talks for a rematch for the undisputed heavyweight championship, targeted for July 12 at Wembley Stadium in London. Usyk, undefeated and now recognized as the top heavyweight after two wins over Tyson Fury, vacated the IBF belt to allow a Fury rematch. Daniel Dubois subsequently claimed the IBF title and knocked out Anthony Joshua in a notable comeback. Negotiations are ongoing with sanctioning bodies to potentially allow all major belts to be contested in the rematch. The bout, which will headline a major Ring Magazine event, is highly anticipated due to the controversial low blow ruling in their first fight and Dubois’s resurgence. Usyk has indicated he may retire after two more fights, heightening the stakes for both men.
