Against expectations inside the prestigious Wembley Stadium, Ukraine fighter Oleksandr Usyk, has defeated British man Daniel Dubois in a Heavyweight showdown to retain his title.
The rematch happened nearly two years after their first bout.
Usyk has now dispatched Dubois with 1:52 remaining in the fifth round of their title fight.
Dominance At Play
Usyk dominated most of the bout and landed multiple heavy blows on Dubois in the fifth round, knocking down the London native twice — and Dubois stayed down the second time to finish a masterful performance for the 38-year-old Ukrainian superstar.
According how the fight panned out, Dubois showed low performance compared to how aggressive he was when he faced fellow Briton Anthony Joshua last year,
The Difference
In other words, Dubois has joined the league of those who has been beaten twice like Tyson Fury and Joshua.
For the third time in his career, Usyk has become an undisputed champion.
He did it once at cruiserweight, and now twice at heavyweight.
