Dubois Eyes Usyk Trilogy After KO Victory Over Wardley
Daniel Dubois, the WBO heavyweight world champion, has expressed his desire for a trilogy fight with Oleksandr Usyk after achieving a stunning second-round knockout victory over Fabio Wardley to retain his WBO title in London. Dubois previously faced Usyk twice, losing both encounters; he was stopped in the ninth round in August 2023 and knocked out in the fifth round in 2025 at Wembley Stadium.
In his recent bout against Wardley, Dubois demonstrated his dominance early on, landing a heavy right punch within the first 20 seconds. Although Wardley managed to survive the first round, Dubois concluded the fight in the second round.
This victory marked Dubois's second consecutive stoppage win over Wardley, following a previous win in Manchester five months earlier, where he recovered from two knockdowns to win in 11 rounds. Following the fight, Dubois stated his intentions to know who his next opponent would be.
