Oleksandr Usyk Vs. Daniel Dubois II? Is there any fan curiosity? May there be if “Dynamite” Dubois lives as much as his nickname and defeats Anthony Joshua of their fast-approaching September twenty first conflict? 27 yr previous Dubois, talking with TNT Sports activities (who will, together with Sky Sports activities and DAZN, present the combat dwell within the UK) stated he must “proper that fallacious.”
Dubois was referring to ‘that’ physique shot knockdown, the one Dubois inflicted on Usyk within the combat that happened in Poland a bit over a yr in the past. The punch was dominated a low blow, however to this present day, loads of individuals consider the shot was legit, with Usyk “milking it,” as he was given time to recuperate. Usyk, after all, got here again to halt Dubois within the ninth spherical. However Dubois says he needs a second go at Usyk, and he believes a win over Joshua would possibly get him it.
“There may be positively unifinished enterprise with me and Usyk, and that’s a part of my rise,” Dubois stated. “I must go in there and proper that fallacious. I used to be in a darkish place earlier than, and I’m coming into the sunshine, so I must get that again.”
Usyk lately stated that he’s solely considering return fights with Tyson Fury (the rematch set, after all, for September 21 in Saudi Arabia) and, if he defeats Dubois, Joshua in what can be a 3rd combat between the 2. So, a return assembly with Dubois doesn’t appear to carry any actual attraction for Usyk. And, after all, Dubois has a heck of a job to do with a view to topple AJ. Some followers and specialists really feel Dubois, who’s each younger and hungry, can do it later this month. Others really feel Joshua’s larger edge in expertise will see him to victory at Wembley.
Oleksandr Usyk will doubtless be watching on September 21, however he appears to have eyes on going through solely Joshua in a return assembly, not Dubois.
However, Dubois feels he shall be one of many high males within the division if he wins over AJ. The truth is, Dubois thinks a win over Joshua places him at “the highest of the tree.”
“It places me on the high of the tree now. It does make me the king, for certain,” he stated.
Solely a revenge win over Usyk would put Dubois on the absolute high of the heavyweight division, however will “DDD” ever get a second go on the unbeaten Ukrainian?
