A new undisputed heavyweight champion of the world will be crowned on Saturday, July 19, as Oleksandr Usyk (38) and Daniel Dubois (27) meet for the second time in a historic title clash at Wembley Stadium in London. The event will be broadcast live on DAZN Worldwide and promoted by Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren for Queensberry and Ready To Fight.
This fight marks the first-ever undisputed heavyweight championship bout on British soil and promises to break viewing records across the UK and Europe. Fans will witness Usyk defend his WBC, WBO, and WBA titles against IBF world champion Dubois in what is sure to be a monumental night for boxing.
Usyk’s quest for a third undisputed title
For Usyk, the former undisputed cruiserweight champion, this will be his third attempt at becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion. He first won the cruiserweight crown in 2018, before taking the heavyweight title in his May 2024 showdown against Tyson Fury. Usyk, who has already cemented his place as one of boxing’s finest, is looking to add to his legacy with this historic fight on UK soil.
“I’m grateful to God for the opportunity to once again fight for the undisputed championship,” Usyk said. “Thank you, Daniel, for taking care of my IBF belt – now I want it back.”
Dubois: Hungry for revenge
For Dubois, this fight is personal. Their first encounter in August 2023 was a controversial affair. In the fifth round, Dubois dropped Usyk with a body shot, only for the referee to rule it illegal, granting Usyk over four minutes to recover. Despite the setback, Usyk would go on to win the fight in the ninth round, but Dubois has never agreed with the decision.
“This is the fight I wanted and demanded, and now I get my chance for revenge against Oleksandr Usyk,” Dubois declared. “I should have won the first fight and was denied by the judgment 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. I am a superior and more dangerous fighter now, and Usyk will find this out for himself on July 19.”
A historic fight on UK soil
Promoter Frank Warren expressed his excitement for the event: “I am thrilled to deliver this historic undisputed occasion for Daniel at Wembley Stadium,” he said. “It will be an honor to promote a sporting event of this magnitude and a privilege to bring over a champion of the stature of Oleksandr. I am certain that we will see the best of British both in and outside of the ring, from Daniel and the unrivalled fight fans who will pack out the biggest sporting venue in the country.”
Both fighters have shown unwavering determination to make this fight a reality, and with Riyadh Season’s sponsorship, the event promises to be a spectacle for boxing fans worldwide. “This will not only be a great bout but also a unique event in terms of entertainment,” said Sergey Lapin, CEO of Ready To Fight.

“Good luck finding your seat if u cant spell ‘because’ right 🤣 Hope u dont end up at cricket match instead of boxing lololol”
“Oh wow another title fight with same two guys from before 😴 Let me guess – Usik gets knocked down again, referee calls timeout for tea break and then he wins magically? Classic boxing logic 😂😂”
“Oh yes let’s crown another undisputed champion… until next week when someone else get belt from mystery federation nobody heard of 🙄 Boxing got more titles than Netflix got shows.”
Ok but if you say Usyk gonna win again, your forgettin how unfair last fight was??? 🤨 That low blow wasnt even low it waz body shot and everyone saw that! Ref messed up big time so this rematch better b clean!
Usyk’s journey from cruiserweight to heavywate champion is one for the books📚. As a former Olympic gold medalist, his technical prowess sets him apart. This bout will add another page in boxing’s storied legacy.
This whole hype is just a joke. That first fight was robbed from Dubbois, no way that punch was low! They gave Usick all the time in world to breath, unfair refereein at itz finest. Why even bother again if system rigged?👎
I tink itz gonna b an amazin night 🤩 Usyk iz like a real life hero, he just keep winin all the belts and makin history like a champin. Dubois gud too but he not on that level yet. Cant wait to wach it live on DAZON or wateva its called 😂
