Their Boxing Careers
Usyk, undefeated at 23-0 with 14 knockouts, unified the cruiserweight division in 2018 through the World Boxing Super Series. At heavyweight, he defeated Anthony Joshua twice in 2021 and 2022 and Tyson Fury twice, including a split decision in May 2024 to become undisputed champion. He vacated the IBF title in June 2024, which Dubois claimed. Their first fight in August 2023 in Poland ended with Usyk stopping Dubois in the ninth round of their initial matchup after a controversial low blow call.
Dubois, with a 22-2 record and 21 knockouts, won the IBF title by knocking out Joshua in September 2024. His only other loss was to Joe Joyce in 2020. Known for his power, Dubois has a 95% knockout rate in his wins. At 243.8 pounds for the rematch, he’s lighter than his 248-pound frame against Joshua but heavier than the 233.2 pounds in his first Usyk fight.
The card includes other major bouts.
