Get to know the start time, streaming options as well as the ring walkouts time for the Oleksandr Usyk vs Daniel Dubois 2 card!
Boxing fans love a good heavyweight scrap, and they love it even more when titles are on the line. Tonight at Wembley Stadium, fans are getting the heavyweight fight of 2025 as Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois square off for the second time. Their first meeting back in August 2023 was filled with controversy and drama, especially that low blow situation that had everyone arguing for months afterward. Dubois dropped Usyk with what looked like a body shot, but the referee ruled it a low blow and gave the Ukrainian time to recover. That moment still haunts the British fighter, and you can bet he’s been thinking about it every day since.
This rematch carries massive stakes for both men. Usyk sits on top of the heavyweight mountain with three of the four major belts, while Dubois holds that elusive IBF title that makes this fight for all the marbles. The winner becomes the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. Dubois has been on a tear since their first fight, knocking out Anthony Joshua in spectacular fashion at this very venue. Usyk has stayed busy too, beating Tyson Fury twice to prove he’s still the king of the hill. The stage is set for fireworks in North London, and boxing fans around the world are clearing their Saturday night schedules.

Both fighters will likely put on a show during their ring walks, especially Dubois who will have the home crowd behind him. Usyk tends to keep things more subdued, but don’t be surprised if he brings some Ukrainian flair to mark this historic moment. The ring walk is where the real pressure hits. These are the moments that separate good fighters from great ones, and both Usyk and Dubois have proven they can handle the bright lights and big stage!
