Usyk Splits with Promoter Ahead of Dubois Rematch

Usyk`s split from promoter Krassyuk adds drama to his rematch with Dubois, where all four heavyweight titles are at stake.

Oleksandr Usyk has made headlines with the announcement of his split from long-time promoter Alex Krassyuk, just days before his highly anticipated rematch against Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium. This pivotal clash will see Usyk, the reigning WBC, WBA, and WBO heavyweight champion, defend his titles after a tumultuous journey that saw him crowned undisputed champion following a victory over Tyson Fury last May.

In a dramatic turn of events, Usyk vacated the IBF belt to engage in a rematch with Fury in December, which he won decisively. Dubois, who seized the IBF title after that bout, has since made waves in the heavyweight division with a stunning knockout victory over Anthony Joshua in September. Their first encounter in August 2023 ended in controversy, with Usyk winning by a ninth-round stoppage amid debates over a low blow ruling against Dubois.

British heavyweight Dave Allen, who has sparred with both fighters, weighed in on the matchup, suggesting that Usyk may not be a natural heavyweight and that this could be Dubois`s moment to seize the undisputed championship. The stakes are monumental, as the victor will hold all four major belts and face mandatory defenses, starting with Joseph Parker. This rematch promises to be a thrilling spectacle at Wembley, with the future of the heavyweight division hanging in the balance. For more insights, check out boxing news and boxing updates.
