Usyk vs. Dubois:Wembley Stadium Quotes

A historic night for British boxing is set for July 19, when Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) and Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs) step into the ring at Wembley Stadium, marking the first-ever Undisputed Heavyweight Championship of the World clash on British soil. The two champions will battle for four belts in what promises to be one of the most significant events in heavyweight boxing history.

The atmosphere in London was electric today as both fighters gathered for an opening press conference. With so much at stake, emotions ran high, as the fighters and their teams addressed the media, setting the stage for what is expected to be an unforgettable night.

Frank Warren: History in the Making

Frank Warren, the Hall of Fame promoter behind the event, expressed just how monumental this fight is for British boxing, stating:
“It will be a massive night and a historic one for British sport because the undisputed title has never been fought for in the UK. There will be four belts on the line and it is history-making stuff.”
Warren went on to discuss the potential significance for Daniel Dubois, should he claim victory:
“It is an opportunity for Daniel to etch his name in British sporting history. If he wins this fight he will be the first Brit to hold the four belts, and that is a great, great carrot for him to go and get.”

He also praised Usyk for his impeccable career and dominance in the division, but emphasized that Dubois is ready for this moment:
“We are going to sell out here, and it will be a fantastic night. Daniel is on a magnificent run since his controversial loss against Oleksandr, and he has done everything in style, beating three world-class fighters.”

Alex Krassyuk: A New Version of Usyk

Alex Krassyuk, Usyk’s promoter, added that the world will see a new side of Usyk on fight night:
“This time, you will see a version of Usyk you have never seen before. No more controversies, no more question marks. Let the victory go to the one who deserves it more.”
He also reflected on Dubois’ growth as a fighter since their first encounter:
“Daniel Dubois had his priceless experience in the first fight and now he is not a kid anymore. Now he is a mature man with the IBF belt around his waist.”

Oleksandr Usyk: Focused on the Road Ahead

Usyk seemed unbothered by the controversy surrounding their previous encounter and appeared fully focused on the upcoming battle:
“I don’t think about these people (who say I cheated) because it is just talking. Listen, boxing is my life. A lot of people said ‘you won’t make heavyweight’ or be a four-belt cruiserweight. You know what I say? We’ll see.”

He continued:
“I respect this team and I respect all my opponents, those from the UK and the rest of the world. I’m ready right now, not after tomorrow, right now. It is all only talk.”

Daniel Dubois: Ready for Redemption

Daniel Dubois, who still holds the memory of their controversial first fight, had strong words for Usyk:
“Yeah, I was cheated, but it is in the past now. It happened and I get the chance to put that wrong right and clear up the controversy. There is a lot of sh*t being talked about right now and I can’t wait to put him to sleep on the night.”
He went on to add:
“I think I am on fire now, I’m on fire and just pent up and ready to go. It is going to be a bloodbath and I will put all the nonsense to rest.”
“I know that in the ring on the night he will be doing a funny dance when I hit him.”

A Night to Remember

This Undisputed Heavyweight Championship clash will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the most significant and fiercely contested bouts in boxing history. The world will be watching as Usyk looks to defend his titles and prove he is the best heavyweight of his generation, while Dubois seeks redemption and the chance to make his own legacy by becoming the first British heavyweight to hold all four major titles.
