Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois are set to rematch for the undisputed heavyweight title on July 19 at Wembley Stadium, as announced by Queensberry Promotions. In their first encounter in August 2023, Usyk won via a contentious ninth-round knockout. Currently, Usyk holds the WBC, WBA, and WBO titles while Dubois is the IBF champion. Both fighters expressed their determination to claim victory, with Usyk seeking to regain his former belts and Dubois aiming for redemption on home turf. This event marks the first undisputed heavyweight title fight in the UK since 1999.
I'm grateful to God for the opportunity to once again fight for the undisputed championship, Usyk, who has a 23-0 record, said in the statement released on Sunday.
I should have won the first fight and was denied by the judgement of the referee, so I will make no mistake this time around in front of my people at the national stadium in my home city, he said.
