If you're a boxing enthusiast, mark your calendars for July 19, 2025, when Alexander Usyk and Daniel Dubois will square off at Wembley Stadium. The winner of this spectacle could potentially lock horns with Joseph Parker, current interim WBO heavyweight champion. The mouth-watering prospect was revealed by promoter Frank Warren.

Fans of Usyk eagerly await this year as it may bring fresh opportunities for the Ukrainian powerhouse to reinforce his dominance in the division. The rematch with Dubois, especially intriguing after their previous bout ended in Usyk's knockout victory in the ninth round (August 2023), is a crucial stepping stone towards this potential showdown.

Interestingly, sources suggest that should Usyk secure another triumph over Dubois, he will be compelled to defend his WBO title against Joseph Parker. This is because Parker currently holds a mandatory position with the WBO, a fact echoed by boxing insiders and media.

Looking further down the road, Usyk has expressed interest in facing off against unconventional opponents. Nakisa Bidarian, CEO of MVP (Jake Paul’s company), reportedly revealed that Usyk has initiated discussions for a potential mixed martial arts fight with Jake Paul in 2026. However, for now, the clash with Joseph Parker looms large, contingent on Usyk either retaining or regaining the WBO belt.

If Usyk wins against Dubois, he'll likely have to defend his WBO title against Parker due to the latter's mandatory position with the WBO.
