NO GLOVE LOST Oleksandr Usyk vs Daniel Dubois finalising undisputed world title fight deal with date and venue revealed

OLEKSANDR USYK and Daniel Dubois are reportedly finalising an undisputed world title fight deal – with the date and venue already agreed.

Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois boxing.

The heavyweight superstars have long been tipped for a rematch after their epic but controversial scrap in August 2023.

Usyk won that battle in Poland with a ninth-round KO – despite Dubois arguing his low-blow in the fifth should have been scored a knockdown.

And after doing the double over Tyson Fury, the Ukrainian is now set to step in the ring with Dubois once again.

Britain’s IBF heavyweight champion has beaten Jarrell Miller, Filip Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua since losing to Usyk.

And Dubois, whose February fight against Joseph Parker fell through due to illness, will now have the chance to become the undisputed champion of the world as talks over a rematch grow closer.

Ring Magazine claims a contract is in the final stages for Usyk and Dubois to fight at Wembley Stadium.

The date that’s been pencilled in is Saturday July 12.

And it will see all the heavyweight belts on the line, with Usyk currently holding the WBC, WBA, WBO, IBO and The Ring belts.

Earlier this month, Dubois declared he was targeting a title fight against Usyk despite Derek Chisora becoming the mandatory challenger for his IBF belt.

Dubois said: “Definitely July, a big fight in July against Usyk. That’s what I want.

“There’s talks, negotiations happening behind the scenes, the two teams are going back and forth.

“I’m just doing my job as a fighter and staying ready and getting prepared for when I get a call on whoever is next, I’m ready to unleash hell.

“The Usyk fight would be like the AJ fight but way bigger, the biggest fight in the world.

“That’s the fight that really excites me and there’s revenge there as well.

“The Usyk fight for undisputed would create history, that would be a massive historic event.

“Just like the AJ fight, the build-up at Leicester Square, it would just be amazing to be a part of that sort of fight.

“I’ll be the man to stop him, I just see it. I’ll be the first man to beat him. Fight news is coming soon.”

On April 22, the IBF are set to order Dubois to defend his belt against Chisora, but title unifications can supersede mandatory challengers.

But Dubois added: “I’m not really interested [in the Chisora fight] like that, but sure, why not?

“You know, I’m more up for [Joseph] Parker, Usyk and AJ, those guys, the top names. But I guess take him on as a comeback fight or something.”

Usyk became the heavyweight division’s first-ever four-belt undisputed king with his May victory over Fury.

But he was forced to vacate the IBF belt to proceed with his December rematch against Fury – which he again won on points.

Dubois inherited the vacated IBF strap after being elevated from interim champ.

And that now sets up a blockbuster undisputed showdown with Usyk.
