Ukraine's heavyweight world champion is set to defend his WBA, IBF and WBO belts against his British mandatory challenger on August 26 in Poland. Usyk, who is unbeaten in all of his 20 fights and is best known for twice beating Anthony Joshua. He is a heavy favourite going into the bout. Dubois (19-1-0) became the mandatory challenger to Usyk back in June 2022, beating American Trevor Bryan by knockout to win the WBA 'regular' heavyweight title. Dubois has not fought since featuring on the undercard of Tyson Fury's bout with Dereck Chisora last December when he defeated Kevin Lerena by knockout at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Usyk (20-0-0) will be fighting in Poland for the first time since 2015 where he won the WBO world cruiserweight title against Krzysztof Glowacki. The fight at the Tarczynski Arena will be Usyk's first title defence since he beat Anthony Joshua in Saudi Arabia to retain his belts. The fight location of Wroclaw, Poland, was selected to honour the Ukrainian refugees who have fled their home nation to its western neighbour following Russia's invasion of the country. Fight will be live on BT Sports
Artur Beterbiev will defend his light heavyweight belts against Callum Smith on Saturday, Aug. 19, at Videotron Centre in Quebec City the place where the undefeated Beterbiev lives. The WBC ordered the fight in March, with Smith as Beterbiev’s mandatory challenger with that sanctioning body. IBF, WBC & WBO light heavyweight champion Beterbiev (19-0, 19 KOs) looked beatable in his last fight against Anthony Yarde last January before turning on the heat in the eighth to score a knockout of the tired warrior. Callum (29-1, 21 KOs) hopes to take advantage of the age of the 38-year-old Beterbiev when they meet next month in the main event on August 19th at the Centre Videotron in Quebec City. Fight will be shown live on ESPN+ and Sky Sports
Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte, individuals familiar with one another, continue their rivalry on August 12 with both looking to make a statement within the crowded heavyweight division. It is the second time the two will fight one another inside the O2, dating back to when Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs) beat Whyte 29-3 (19 KOs) via TKO for the British heavyweight title in 2015. It was a brilliant comeback performance by Joshua, who regained his composure after being roughed up by Whyte earlier in the fight. Joshua landed hard blows before putting Whyte through the ropes in the seventh round. The 33-year-old has gone 3-3 in his last six, losing his status as the champion against Andy Ruiz Jr. and Oleksandr Usyk. AJ rebounded in his last fight against Jermaine Franklin in April. Now, he looks to work his way back to title contention while taking out a fierce rival one and for all. Whyte, who beat Joshua at the amateur level in 2009, won eleven in a row following the Joshua loss, eventually winning the British belt and the interim WBC heavyweight title. He is 2-2 in his last four bouts, losing against Tyson Fury for the WBC heavyweight title in April 2022. The 35-year-old rebounded in his last fight in November, beating Franklin via what many call a controversial majority decision win. With the heavyweight division getting younger, Whyte looks to remain a consistent threat, especially against Joshua.The card will stream live on DAZN in over 200 countries across the globe.
