Daniel Dubois

WBA regular heavyweight belt holder Daniel Dubois (18-1, 17 KOs) sued Don King, who owes him a large sum of money.

Frank Warren stated that, immediately after the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua, he will begin to put pressure on the leadership of the WBA and WBO to set the dates for the mandatory defense of the championship belts. British promoter represents interests Daniel Dubois (18-1, 17 KOs) and Joe Joyce (13-0, 12 KOs), who are official contenders in both organizations.

Daniel Dubois won an early victory in the fourth round over Trevor Bryan last Saturday in Miami. At stake was the title of "regular" WBA heavyweight champion. This belt is not considered a real world title, but represents a "golden ticket" for Dubois, who is now the mandatory contender for the winner of the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua this summer.

Challenger No. 1 Daniel Dubois (18-1, 17 KOs) knocked out and overthrew the WBA heavyweight champion Trevor Bryan (22-1, 15 KOs) in the main event of the evening at the Miami Jai-Alai Casino. Dubois started the fight aggressively and went forward on Brian from the first gong. Aside from a few hits, Brian seemed to go into survival mode immediately. In the fourth round, Dubois landed a left hook that dropped Bryan to the floor, facing forward, and the fight was stopped at 1:58. Thus, Dubois became the new "regular" WBA heavyweight champion.

Saturday at a boxing night in Miami Trevor Bryan (22-0, 15 KOs) and Daniel Dubois (17-1, 16 KOs) will fight for the WBA "regular" heavyweight belt. Brian weighed 117.7 kg, Dubois - 109.5 kg.
