Dubois seeks to avenge 2023 defeat in heavyweight rematch with Usyk
During pre-fight discussions, Usyk showed respect for Dubois, saying: 'He's motivated, but I am, too.'
Dubois, the IBF champion, expressed his desire to write his 'own script' and achieve greatness.
Dubois's promoter, Frank Warren, praised Dubois's power and often underestimated boxing skills, forecasting an explosive bout given Usyk's tendency to engage in close-range exchanges.
Despite Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez placing a significant bet on Usyk to win, Dubois confidently dismissed the prediction, saying that Canelo would lose his money and Usyk his unified belts.
