The complete undercard lineup for this major boxing event will be announced in the coming weeks.
Fans will recall their first encounter in August 2023, which ended with Usyk scoring a ninth-round knockout victory. That fight featured a controversial moment in the fifth round when Dubois landed a body shot that sent Usyk to the canvas. The referee ruled it a low blow, allowing Usyk recovery time – a decision that sparked protests from Dubois' team. Subsequent appeals filed by promoter Frank Warren were rejected, as fight statistics demonstrated Usyk's clear dominance throughout the bout.
This rematch represents another significant chapter in Usyk's illustrious career, with the Ukrainian reportedly having specific plans for his final professional bout after facing Dubois.
