- What: Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois
- Where: Wembley Stadium in London, England
- When: Saturday, July 19 at 3 p.m. ET
- How to Watch: DAZN
Here we go again. That's what a lot of boxing fans have in mind right now, as a massive heavyweight matchup is on the way between Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois. The first time they faced off, Usyk knocked him out with a mean punch. This time around, it should come as no surprise that Oleksandr Usyk is expected to take down Daniel Dubois by TKO in rematch.
Will he get the job done there? That's what a lot of people have in mind, as Usyk has proven on several occasions that he's fighting at an elite level. Back in 2023, Usyk dominated things from start to finish against Dubois, which turned plenty of heads. This time around, Dubois is looking to prevent that from happening, but it's going to be tough for him.

"These Ukrainians, they do all his mind work and mind control stuff, so I just need to be right physically, spiritually and that will be enough on the night," Dubois said in a presser leading up to the fight. He's always in that [mind games]. I think he's a boring guy. He is at home doing his mind (expletive). You got to just beat him in a ring."
According to the online sports betting sites, Usyk holds eye-opening odds to end this one via a TKO. That's right, the best boxing betting sites have him listed at -105 to win via a knockout. It will be interesting to see if that will happen or not, but we have a feeling that Usyk is going to be too much for Dubois to handle. We're picking him to win and by a TKO, no doubt.
Usyk vs Dubois 2🥊. I think Daniel Dubois should go for the knockout on Usyk. You can still win a decision even you go for the knockout too though. Some of ya’ll won’t understand that. Daniel is strong and 10 years younger. Be aggressive. Can’t box with Usyk. #UsykDubois2 pic.twitter.com/OdQM5wSa1y

How many rounds will the Usyk vs. Dubois rematch last?
A big question a lot of people have on their minds is how many rounds will the Usyk vs. Dubois rematch last? The first time these two put the gloves on and met in the middle of the ring, the showdown lasted nine rounds before Usyk connected with his haymaker that turned out the lights for the night. This is obviously something Dubois wants to avoid.
While we do think that Usyk will win this matchup via a TKO, we also have a feeling that Dubois is going to be much better prepared this time around. When the two faced off for the first time in 2023, it was clear that Usyk was the dominant fighter and Dubois wasn't physically or mentally ready to face off with him. That won't be the case this time around.

"Fireworks, it's going to be bombs away on the night," Dubois told Sky Sports in an interview earlier this month. "I'm going to be the one throwing the bombs, coming through whatever I've got to come through. I'm not going to be denied."
According to the oddsmakers, the over/under for rounds has been set at 8.5, with -110 boxing betting odds for both. With the amount of power Usyk has, it wouldn't be a total shocker at all to see him end this one early. However, we're going to give Dubois some credit here, as he's been working overtime in his training. We're going with the over for rounds, as we think this one will end in Round 10.
Daniel Lapin should have no issues with Lewis Edmondson in an undercard fight
The meeting between Usyk and Dubois isn't the only exciting one for the night, as Daniel Lapin should have no issues with Lewis Edmonson in an undercard fight. Lapin has been on a tear early on in his career and he's getting ready to keep the momentum going. As of this writing, the light heavyweight star is 11-0 thus far and he's getting ready to post win No. 12 later this month.
However, Edmondson is going to work to have a say in that, as he's got an upset in his mind. That of course isn't going to be easy, as Edmondson is hoping to stun everyone out there by posting a win. He's got a bit of a mountain to climb, as plenty of analysts are convinced that Lapin will cruise to a victory in this one. Will that end up being the case.
Per the top sportsbooks, Lapin has been given -450 moneyline odds to take down Edmondson. Edmondson indeed is the major underdog, as he's been set at +275. While we'd like to think that Edmondson will keep this one close, we're not convinced that will be the case. We're no doubt going with Lapin as our pick - this fight should be over early on.
