British heavyweight boxer Daniel Dubois commented on the upcoming fight with WBO, WBA, IBO and IBF world champion Oleksandr Usyk. In his opinion, the only way to defeat Usyk is to end the fight with a knockout.. " " So you need to win an early victory. My opponent has an amateur style. It's footwork and more. It's no secret. So I gotta go there and have a hard fight. Gotta scare him. This is what I plan to do. It takes a lot of hits. On the arms, shoulders, head, everything above the waist. I'm already in combat mode. On fight night it will all matter," Usyk vs Dubois fight will take place on August 26 in Wroclaw, Poland. All championship belts owned by the Ukrainian will be at stake. The 36-year-old Usyk has 20 wins (13 by knockout) in 20 fights. He held four of them in the heavyweight division.. Before that, Alexander became the absolute world champion in the cruiserweight (weight category up to 90.7 kg), having won all four of the most prestigious belts there.. The 25-year-old Dubois has 19 wins (18 by knockout) and the only loss in November 2020 from his compatriot Joe Joyce. Earlier it was reported that Usyk held the final sparring session before the fight with Dubois.
