‘Unstoppable’ Dubois says he’s ready to cause chaos and beat Usyk

LONDON: Daniel Dubois said he felt unstoppable and ready to cause chaos when he fights unbeaten Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight world title at Wembley Stadium on Saturday. Dubois, 27, is the IBF champion while Usyk, 38, holds the WBA, WBC and WBO belts. The unification fight is a rematch of one that the Londoner lost by a controversial ninth-round knockout in Wroclaw, Poland, in 2023 after Usyk was given time to recover from what the referee ruled was a low blow. Dubois can become Britain’s first undisputed champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999 while Usyk is bidding to be a four-belt undisputed heavyweight champion for the second time after relinquishing the IBF title last year. “I’ve resurrected myself, resurrected my career and now we’re on a roll,” Dubois told the BBC. “Unstoppable, I feel like I can’t be beat right now. I’m in the prime of my life and I’m going to go through whatever I have to do.
