Daniel Dubois vs Oleksandr Usyk ANNOUNCED with fighters to do battle in huge Wembley rematch on July 19

Published on April 27, 2025 at 07:30 PM

DANIEL DUBOIS' rematch with Oleksandr Usyk has been switched to July 19.

Dubois is chasing revenge over the unbeaten heavyweight at Wembley, 19 months after a controversial ninth-round TKO defeat.

Organisers have now moved the fight back a week from July 12.

That's to avoid sharing the spotlight with a mega bill featuring Edgar Berlanga and in New York City.

Dubois is still smarting from his dramatic downfall against Usyk in August 2023.

The IBF king dropped the legend in the fifth round.

But referee Luis Pabon deemed the punch to be a low blow and gave Usyk the allotted five minutes to recover.

Pabon, however, controversially urged Usyk to take more time to recover after the fan favourite said he was ready to fight.

Dubois and promoter appealed to the WBA to overturn the result of the fight to a no-contest due to Pabon's questionable low-blow call.

But the Panama-based sanctioned body rejected their protestations and upheld the result of Usyk's second defence of the unified heavyweight titles.
