“I saw what Oleksandr Usyk did during Wagle -in – Daniel Dubois should worry”

Published

on

Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois tilted the scales before the historical unquestioned heavyweight struggle. The couple will fight two years after Usyk returns from the controversial Dubois low blow to the British in Poland.

Wembley will be shocked by the two best heavyweight divisions on Saturday evening, when 38-year-old Utyt and 27-year-old Dubois Rematch, with all four lanes on the line. The victory for Usyk will see how he once again coroned the undisputed master after his first victory over Tyson Fury and one of the greatest fighters in history. Victory for Dubois in his hometown saw him that he was called the first British who had kept the undisputed nickname since Wielki Lennox Lewis. They both weighed at Boxpark Wembley on Friday afternoon and it must be said that Usyk’s activities caught eye.

Dubois entered the chorus of fans chanting his name, but they were soon drowned out when his opponent came in and the audience broke out with louder shouts. Usyk’s deviation did not end there. He was much better supported and weighed 227 pounds and 3 ounces, compared to heavier Dubois, which weighed 243 pounds and 8 ounces.

What happened next was Cherry in Ukrainians, because after they both stood, Usyk made a deliberate move to poke before Dubois, bending in front of the British and blocking his view. Dubois quickly tried to start this movement, the elbows to the front of the stage, but the damage was caused, and Usyk had already stolen his thunder.

To rub the salt in wounds, when the 27-year-old was later asked questions, Usyk went to the front of the stage again, and the cakophonic support that Dubois received the answers.

On the other hand, Usyk was well heard by everyone and maintained a brief and sweet speech, saying: “For me it is a great opportunity, for my people and my country. Thank you to Jesus Christ. See you tomorrow!” Always the personification of frosty, placid and gathered, Usyk seemed even more focused on laser and dissatisfied as usual, which can only be a good sign for him and his fans.

Dubois is a weaker for this fight, even though there is 11 years Junior Usyk and maintains what many consider to be the most deadly right hand in boxing. On the other hand, his undefeated Ukrainian opponent showed again and again that he could survive gigantic Hitters, and the fear of Dubois would be such that if this fight goes beyond six, maybe seven rounds, his fate is as good as sealed.

The narrative surrounding the controversial low impact provided Dubois with some motivation to the rematch. He was adamant that he was “robbed”, but that evening Usyk proved that he was a better warrior.

On Saturday, it is obvious that although weighing does not necessarily serve as an indicator of how a crowd of Wembley will feel prone, the result of Ukrainian fans will throw every blow from the Utyk, and maybe even be a favorite warrior in Dubois’s hometown. The recording before Dubois was perhaps symbolic for these two giants standing in the heavyweight division, with many feeling that Usyk has an advantage.

The Ukrainian will undoubtedly think that he is a better warrior; His weighing actions said the same amount. The chances seemed to be directed against Dubois, which would have to bring the best performance in his career to raise his hand at the end. He will have to go to up-to-date levels and achieve something that British bulky weight has no more than two decades. But if Friday’s weighing was something that could go through, he may not have most support in Wembley to drive it. And this is not perfect for the British.

GG.BET has become the official partner of the UYYk vs. fight Dubois II, introducing “real emotions” to the largest boxing scene. Earlier, the brand set its name thanks to partnerships with leading Esports tournaments, such as Blast, International, PGL and the best ESPORTS organizations, such as Navi and Team Vitality.

Ten seconds into the penultimate round, Usyk launched a brutal attack that injured Verhoeven, but he continued to fight. Nevertheless, the referee stepped in at 2:59 of the 11th round and called off the fight.
