Dubois in talks over Usyk title fight
Briefly

Daniel Dubois is in negotiations to face Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight championship, having withdrawn from a title defense against Joseph Parker due to illness. Unlike other major heavyweight bouts recently held in Saudi Arabia, Dubois and his team are expressing interest in hosting the fight at Wembley Stadium. Dubois previously lost to Usyk in 2023 but has won his last three fights impressively. Usyk, the undefeated champion, seeks to retain his status after vacating the IBF belt last year, aiming to unify the heavyweight division for the first time since Lennox Lewis in 1999.
Britain's Daniel Dubois is in talks to fight Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight title, aiming for a match potentially at Wembley Stadium.
Team Dubois is focused on a match against Usyk, moving away from a scheduled defense against Parker. Usyk remains undefeated in 23 bouts.
