He became the first four-belt undisputed champion in heavyweight history after a historic win over Tyson Fury.
But Usyk was forced to vacate the IBF belt in order to proceed with his money-spinning Riyadh rematch against Fury in December 2024.
The Ukrainian returns to action in London, trying to put Daniel Dubois down once more.
What is Oleksandr Usyk's net worth?
The true extent of Usyk's can not truly be known - but reports online suggest it is in the region of £45million - though it could be much more.

Usyk has also fought Anthony Joshua twice, with his pair of points wins likely to have banked him around £30m.
He would have also picked up a few million for his 2023 victory over Daniel Dubois and other pay-per-view fights against the likes of Tony Bellew and Derek Chisora.
Usyk is also sponsored by Venum, Jaxet, Lomus, and WePlay Esports.
How much is he getting paid for Dubois rematch?
Again unconfirmed, but social media reports suggest the fighters are getting in the ring for a split £150m purse.

Scottie Scheffler resembles peak Tiger Woods as Rory McIlroy and Co nowhere close with eerie stat ominous for his rivals

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THERE is, perhaps, one glimmer of hope for every other professional golfer on the planet. And that is the possibility that Scottie Scheffler might once more encounter an overzealous traffic policeman and be led away from a Major championship in handcuffs. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Scottie Scheffler cruised to The Open victory by four shots Credit: AP 6 Tiger Woods won three Opens as world No1 and dominated golf Credit: Getty 6 Scheffler was famously arrested during the PGA Championship at Valhalla last year Credit: EPA Little else, it seems, will stop the man who cruised to the Claret Jug at Portrush. Scheffler has now won 22 tournaments in three-and-a-half years and has finished inside the top ten at ten of the last 12 Majors, winning three of his last eight big ones. That extraordinary run includes last year's PGA Championship at Valhalla, when Scheffler was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer as well as 'third-degree criminal mischief' before his second round. The world No1 had his wrists shackled in irons, was dressed in orange for a police mugshot and yet still returned to the course and finished the tournament in eighth. READ MORE ON GOLF GREAT SCOTT Scottie Scheffler on cusp of joining elite group of golf greats if he wins Open Louisville's Department of Corrections eventually dropped all charges against Scheffler - a God-fearing Christian and a devoted family man with no other previous for any degree of mischief whatsoever. Save for his ability to spoil people's weekends by turning golf tournaments into processions. Scheffler is neither a charismatic man nor a thrilling golfer but he is incredibly, remorselessly good at this game - and his form over the past three years has resembled peak Tiger Woods. Woods took 1,197 days to win his fourth Major after he'd clinched his first. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS Scheffler did it in exactly the same timescale. Which sounds pretty damned ominous for everybody else. Next year, the two-time Masters winner and reigning USPGA champion will turn up at Shinnecock Hills in New York state for the US Open, determined to complete a career Grand Slam. Bryson DeChambeau reveals he used to beat Scottie Scheffler for fun as world No1 chases Open glory Rory McIlroy, who became only the sixth man to win a Grand Slam at Augusta in April, played pretty well at Portrush - especially during his 66 on Saturday - and yet the world No2 could never even lay a glove on the world No1, finishing seven shots back. There had been an inevitability about Scheffler since he started sharking his way up the leaderboard as a late starter on Friday, as menacing as a dorsal fin in a paddling pool. Between the 11th hole on Friday and the eighth on Sunday afternoon, Scheffler played 32 holes without dropping a single shot. Seven strokes clear of the field after seven holes of his final round, the Texan then took two attempts to escape from a fairway bunker and double-bogeyed. For a few feverish minutes, it felt as if there might be an outside chance of something genuinely interesting happening - especially as last week's Scottish Open champion Chris Gotterup had just carded a birdie to bring him within four of the lead. But ever since he won his first pro tournament in February 2022, Scheffler has proved he is no choker. He birdied the ninth and the procession continued. They might as well have carried him shoulder-high around these Dunluce links in a sedan chair. Leading by four heading into the final round, Scheffler drove left into the rough on the opening hole but, using his wedge like some kind of a wand, he landed the ball 16 inches from the hole. Around the first green there was barely a ripple of applause. None of them were close... this fella Scheffler is simply too damned good Perhaps they were all supreme optimists still believing in the possibility of a McIlroy miracle or perhaps they have seen enough of Scheffler to simply imagine that this kind of thing was somehow normal. After tapping in for birdie, Scheffler continued on his serene way, save for his scrape in the sandpit at eight. As soon as he had smoked his tee shot up the fourth fairway, one of Scheffler's fellow Americans yelled out "what's the point, Scoddie?" It referenced the philosophical pre-tournament press conference during which Scheffler had openly pondered the meaning of his existence, given the transient nature of his joy at winning tournaments. It had felt like the late voice of darts, Sid Waddell, evoking Alexander the Great shedding tears of salt because, by the age of 33, he had no more worlds to conquer. Scheffler is only 29. This turned out to be a 26th American triumph in the last 34 Majors and an 18th in the last 30 Opens. These Yanks, they come over here, complain about our weather, try to convince us that our conditions are alien to them, and then they carry off our Claret Jug, time after time after time. This ended up as an American one-two-three with Harris English four strokes behind Scheffler on 13-under and one ahead of Gotterup. Matt Fitzpatrick - the last man to lead this tournament before Scheffler seized the lead on Friday evening - was tied for fourth place with another American, Wyndham Clark, and China's Haotong Li. But, in truth, none of them were close. This fella Scheffler is simply too damned good. They'd better call up Officer Dibble. 6 The American was led away in handcuffs and put in a cell Credit: AP 6 Scheffler celebrated with wife Meredith and son Bennett on the 18th green Credit: PA

Tyson Fury wants third fight with Oleksandr Usyk

Former WBC-belt holder Fury was at BOXPARK Wembley on Saturday afternoon but did not stick around to watch Usyk dismantle fellow British boxer Daniel Dubois in scintillating fashion at the national stadium. Usyk's brutal fifth-round stoppage of Dubois made him undisputed world heavyweight champion for a second time after he initially won all the belts against Fury last May in Riyadh before he was forced to vacate his IBF title. .@usykaa knocks out Daniel Dubois in the fifth round to become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world 🌎 #UsykDubois — Queensberry Promotions (@Queensberry) July 19, 2025 Fury went into retirement after he tasted a second defeat to Usyk on a split decision last December but signalled his intentions to return earlier this month and served notice to the undefeated Ukrainian in the early hours of Sunday morning. During a video of Fury on a run on his Instagram, the 36-year-old 'Gypsy King' said: 'Massive shout out to Oleksandr Usyk. 'He did a fantastic performance tonight over Daniel Dubois, a good, young, game lad who came for a good tear, so congratulations to both men but Oleksandr Usyk knows there is only one man who can beat him. 'I did it twice before and the world knows it. I have been f***** good and proper. 'I took it like a man and here is me, not f****** around at some boxing match, I am out on the road running. 'I am running tonight. I came home, I did my job and I got myself back and I am the man. A post shared by FUROCITY by Tyson Fury (@furocity) 'I am the f****** spartan and no matter what anyone wants to say, I won those fights. Guaranteed, 100 per cent. There is only one man. GK (Gypsy King) all day every day. Get up!' Queensberry chief Frank Warren, Fury's promoter, acknowledged a third fight with Usyk would be 'big' but reiterated WBO mandatory Joseph Parker is next in line. 'Tyson has made it very clear to me he would love to fight at Wembley and would love do that fight. And it would be a big fight, I am quite sure of it,' Warren admitted. 'As a fan, I would like to see the Joe Parker fight. Joe deserves it, he is on a run himself similar to what Daniel was on and that is the fight that has been ordered. 'One way or another it will either happen or Joe will fight for the vacant title.'
