Usyk vs Dubois 2: Start time, undercard and how to watch fight
Daniel Dubois will have the chance to avenge his loss to Oleksandr Usyk when the heavyweight rivals share the ring once again this weekend. The pair are set to renew hostilities after Usyk beat the Briton via ninth-round TKO in 2023, but only after rising off the canvas from a contentious low blow. Usyk then went on to become the first undisputed world heavyweight champion in the four-belt era when he outpointed Tyson Fury in May last year, but vacated the IBF title before beating the Briton again in December. After Dubois was upgraded to IBF champion in the meantime, he underlined his status by brutally knocking out Anthony Joshua under the Wembley arch last September, and will hope for a similar outcome as he returns to the same venue to clash with Usyk. Undisputed status awaits the winner. Here's everything you need to know. When is the fight? Usyk vs Dubois 2 will take place on Saturday 19 July at Wembley Stadium in London. Timings are yet to be announced, but the main card is likely to begin at 7pm BST (11am PT / 1pm CT / 2pm ET), with main-event ring walks following at roughly 10pm BST (2pm PT / 4pm CT / 5pm ET). How can I watch it? The fight will stream live exclusively on DAZN in over 200 countries worldwide, priced at £24.99 in the UK, $59.99 in the US, and $19.99/equivalent ROW (rest of world). A pay-per-view bundle is also available for Usyk vs Dubois 2; viewers can purchase that event and the double-header of Berlanga vs Sheeraz & Stevenson vs Zepeda at a total cost of £39.99 UK, $94.99 US, and $34.99/equivalent ROW. Purchase a subscription to DAZN here, with plans starting at £14.99 a month and allowing access to over 185 fights a year – across boxing, bare-knuckle boxing, MMA and kickboxing. Full fight card Oleksandr Usyk (WBC, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion) vs Daniel Dubois (IBF champion) [undisputed heavyweight titles] Lawrence Okolie vs Kevin Lerena (heavyweight) Daniel Lapin vs Lewis Edmondson (light-heavyweight) Andrii Novytskyi vs Vladyslav Sirenko (heavyweight) Lasha Guruli vs James Francis (super-lightweight) Subject to change Odds Usyk – 2/7 Dubois – 3/1 Draw – 16/1 Prize money It is unknown exactly how much each boxer will earn, but a report from RBC Ukraine claims the total purse will be just over $200m, with a split of 65 per cent to Usyk and 35 per cent to Dubois. So, it is believed Usyk will make $132m (approximately £97.5m), while Dubois will make $71m (approximately £52.5m). Those sums would be career highs for each boxer; Usyk reportedly earned $114m in his rematch with Fury, and Dubois allegedly made $4.6m for his bout with Joshua – before his pay-per-view cut took that number to $13m.
