Dubois aims to knock Usyk out and make him feel old

Dubois aims to knock Usyk out and make him feel old

British heavyweight boxer Daniel Dubois has vowed to knock current world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk out and make him feel old when they meet again next month in London.

With the undisputed heavyweight championship on the line, Dubois aims to both avenge his 2023 stoppage loss to Usyk and become the first British fighter to hold all four belts in the heavyweight division.

Dubois says he feels Usyk is a little bit worn that the tough fights, with Tyson Fury in particular, have taken plenty out of the Ukrainian fighter.

He says he feels that Usyk is ready to be taken off that pedestal.

He adds he knows what he has got to do and that is make Usyk old on the night.

Dubois says he will do things properly this time, and no fiddling about but just bombs away.

He says he is levelling up in the gym and his team is pushing him harder than ever, and it will all come together on the night.

Dubois will take on Usyk on the 19th of July at Wembley Stadium.
