Daniel Dubois is more than ready for his second crack at Oleksandr Usyk.
The two faced off Tuesday in London outside of Wembley Stadium ahead of their championship rematch, which takes place Saturday at the historic venue. Usyk enters the contest as ostensibly the undisputed king of boxing’s heavyweight division; however, Dubois holds a share of that title as the reigning IBF belt holder. That title was previously relinquished by Usyk when he declined to defend it in favor of a rematch with Tyson
Fury.
When Usyk and Dubois meet in the ring again, it will be for all the marbles, and Dubois was fired up for their staredown, which you can watch below.

In the clip, Dubois is seen shouting directly at Usyk, who maintains his trademark steely demeanor.
Usyk (23-0) is already one up on Dubois (22-2), having defeated the English heavyweight by ninth-round knockout when they first fought in August 2023. Since then, Usyk has won a pair of blockbuster bouts against Fury, while Dubois has battled his way back to a rematch on the strength of three straight wins, including a successful IBF title defense against Anthony Joshua.
Check out another angle of the intense faceoff below.
Usyk vs. Dubois 2 takes place Saturday at Wembley Stadium in London and is set to broadcast live on DAZN pay-per-view.
