Oleksandr Usyk knocked out Daniel Dubois to keep his undisputed heavyweight championship. The fight took place at Wembley Stadium in London.
Usyk controlled the match from the beginning. In the fifth round, he knocked Dubois down. Dubois got back up, but Usyk knocked him down again. This time, Dubois couldn't get up, and the referee stopped the fight.
Tony Bellew, a former cruiserweight world champion, praised Usyk's performance. Bellew knows how tough Usyk is. He lost to Usyk in November 2018 when Usyk knocked him out in the eighth round. That fight was Bellew's last before he retired.
"Don't be shocked! Just appreciate what you're witnessing! ???????????? #GenerationalGreat"
Bellew shared these words on social media after Usyk's win.
Usyk now has several options for his next fight. He might have to defend his title against Joseph Parker or Derek Chisora. He could also have a rematch with Tyson Fury or Anthony Joshua. Another possibility is a new challenge against Agit Kabayel. Usyk might even think about retiring, but he hasn't said what he wants to do next.
The BBC reported on Usyk's dominant performance, confirming his status as one of the top heavyweights in the world.
Usyk's win cements his place as a major force in heavyweight boxing. Fans and experts alike will be eager to see what's next for the Ukrainian champion.
