Daniel Dubois spits big tones before the fight for the heavyweight crown against Oleksandr Usyk and announces a unit with the demolition bulb. The Englishman sees itself clearly in one point.
Oleksandr Usyk is already a boxing legend and future member of the Hall of Fame. As an amateur, the Ukrainian was world champion and Olympic champion, as a price boxer, Usyk crowned the undisputed world champion in two weight classes, defeated the superstars Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury twice.
Daniel Dubois apparently leaves that cold. The IBF world champion in heavyweight champion wants to become the first British champion of all classes since the great Lennox Lewis on July 19 in the Wembley Stadium against WBA/WBO champion.
“He is a 38-year-old, old man,” Dubois mocked in an interview with the box Bible “The Ring” over his rival. “No matter how fit and young he may feel in training – I have to uncover the signs of wear, age, and show him what a young, 27 -year -old heavyweight can really do. I look forward to showing that.”
Two years ago, however, the youth had got one on the lid. In Poland Usyk beat the WBA compulsory WBA challenger Dubois in the ninth round KO
“I feel really improved, really relaxed and am ready to call up the performance of my life that night,” said the Englishman. He has not yet reached his full potential. “I just have to go in there and Usyk snatch this belt.”
Dubois: Usyk uses “these situations”
With a view to the first fight against Usyk, Dubois stayed with it, he should have left the ring as the winner in 2023. At that time, the Briton had sent usyk to the ground with a right body hook. The referee rightly rated the goal as a deep blow and gave the world champion several minutes to recover.
In retrospect, he sees how Usyk “exploits these situations when it is really struck. But I am looking to really demolish him this time,” tinted dubois.
