On May 25, a tender will be held to select the organizer of the fight for the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts between Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) and Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs).

The deadline has been officially set by the World Boxing Association. The minimum amount that can be entered into the tender is one million dollars. The money will be divided in the ratio of 75 to 25 in favor of the Ukrainian.

The most likely venues for this fight are the UK, Saudi Arabia and Poland. Dubois is the official contender for the World Boxing Association championship belt.

If Dubois is medically unable to fight, the WBA will oblige Usyk to fight Deontay Wilder.
