Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois are getting ready for a big rematch at Wembley Stadium in July. They'll fight for the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world.
Dave Allen, known as "The White Rhino," thinks Dubois will win this time. He shared his thoughts in a recent interview.
"You know what, I'm calling for a Dubois win. I just think it's about timing really. Usyk is nearing 40. Physically, he's not a heavyweight. I really don't think he's a heavyweight. He could do cruiserweight still now. Daniel Dubois is getting better all the time, and I think now is the time for Daniel Dubois to beat Usyk."
Allen believes Dubois has a good chance because of Usyk's age and size. He also thinks Dubois has improved a lot lately.
The first time these two fought was in August 2023. Usyk won that fight, stopping Dubois in the ninth round. But there was some controversy. In the fifth round, Dubois knocked Usyk down, but the referee called it a low blow. This gave Usyk time to recover.
After that fight, both boxers had some big moments. Usyk fought Tyson Fury twice and became the undisputed champion. He had to give up his IBF title to fight Fury again in December.
Dubois got busy too. He became the IBF champion when Usyk gave up the belt. Then he stopped Filip Hrgovic and knocked out Anthony Joshua in September to defend his title.
The winner of this fight will have all four major heavyweight belts. But they'll have to defend those titles soon. Derek Chisora is next in line for the IBF, and Joseph Parker is the top-ranked WBO fighter.
