Oleksandr Usyk demolished British challenger Daniel Dubois with a spectacular fifth-round knockout at London's Wembley Stadium on July 19, 2025, successfully defending all his heavyweight belts in their highly anticipated rematch.
The Ukrainian champion first sent Dubois to the canvas with a powerful combination before delivering the final blow that ended the contest decisively. This victory marks the second time in Usyk's remarkable career that he has unified all the heavyweight division titles.
"Oleksandr Usyk - champion," wrote Ukrainian football star Illia Zabarnyi on Instagram after witnessing the bout firsthand.
Zabarnyi, who plays as a defender for "Bournemouth" and was named Ukraine's best national team player in 2024, was among the notable spectators at the packed Wembley venue for this marquee boxing event.
The fight served as the main attraction of a major boxing card, with fans witnessing Usyk's technical mastery throughout the early rounds before his power finally overwhelmed Dubois in the fifth.
Interestingly, this rematch settled any lingering questions from their previous encounter, with Usyk leaving absolutely no doubt about his supremacy in the heavyweight division this time around.
Can any heavyweight challenger seriously threaten Usyk's reign after such a dominant performance? The boxing world will certainly be asking that question after tonight's emphatic statement.
