Usyk v Dubois 2: live boxing. Find out fight details, the undercard and what to expect
In their initial (somewhat contentious) step into the ring in August 2023, Usyk won in a ninth-round stoppage. In the fight, Dubois threw a controversial punch in the fifth round that the referee deemed a low blow, giving Usyk four minutes to recover. Dubois called his punch ‘a gift from the Gods’, and his trainer, Don Charles, expressed disappointment at Usyk for acting up to gain an advantageous recovery time. Usyk and his team took offense to Dubois’s phrasing, with Usyk commenting that Dubois ‘Should not have said it’.
So, this time around, Dubois is looking for revenge – and in front of his home crowd, no less. Since then, Dubois has fought and won three times, defeating Jarrell Miller, Fillip Hgrovic and most recently, Anthony Joshua when the Brit challenged Dubois for his IBF title. Usyk, on the other hand, has fought and won against ‘Gypsy King’ Tyson Fury twice since his last dance in the ring with Dubois.
Both fighters are ready. The world is waiting. The only thing left to say is, ‘Let’s get ready to rumble’!
