Tyson Fury has detailed exactly how Daniel Dubois can beat Oleksandr Usyk ahead of their blockbuster rematch this month.
Dubois and Usyk will meet for a second time on July 19 at Wembley Stadium. The pair first met back in 2023 - with the Ukrainian going on to stop 'Triple D' in the ninth round. That said, their heavyweight dust-up was not without controversy.
In the fifth round, Usyk was sent crashing to the canvas with a shot to the body. However, it was eventually deemed a low blow - much to the frustration of Dubois and his team. With the undisputed heavyweight title on the line this time around, the British star will be eager to level the score and become the first fighter to beat the two-division undisputed champion.
Usyk comes into the showdown off of back-to-back wars against Fury. The Ukrainian emerged victorious in the first encounter last May before claiming another points victory back in December. With the 'Gypsy King' going 24 rounds with the Ukrainian - he knows exactly what it feels to truly go toe-to-toe with Usyk.

Speaking to Seconds Out, Fury has revealed what Dubois must do ahead of his second clash with the Ukrainian. “I don’t know. Dubois’ very young, ambitious, big strong man. Usyk’s very experienced but again, he’s coming off of two fights with me which is debatable whether he won or not, which he did win and that’s all that matters. He’s 38 years old."
The two-time heavyweight champion added: “[My advice would be] knock him out … Actually, I wouldn’t say that because it’s in England and it’s his home show. Just do the best you can. He hurt him before with a body shot, put him down heavily, so maybe he can hurt him again.”
Fury will have one eye on the heavyweight showdown after announcing his return to boxing. In a post uploaded to X - formerly known as Twitter - Saudi boxing supremo Turki Alalshikh announced the news, posting: "The 'Gypsy King' will be back!!! I talked with him, and I have his word to have him in Riyadh Season in 2026...We have a rabbit to hunt!" And Fury quickly reposted that onto his own story, with the caption: "Let's see what 2026 brings," followed by multiple dollar signs and laughing faces.
Rabbit is the nickname Fury has given Usyk ahead of both of their fights - and the Brit has claimed the third fight between the pair will take place on April 18, 2026 at Wembley Stadium. The 36-year-old took to Instagram last week and posted a fight poster of both him and the Ukrainian, along with the caption: "April 18, 2026 Wembley Stadium. The trilogy! UK. contact @spencerbrownmrgoldstar for tickets."
He recently revealed that the only fight that would motivate to make a return is a trilogy fight with Usyk. “If I was going to come back I’d come back for Usyk," he said. "In England. That’s the one I want immediately, that would be the fight I want next. In England for sure.”
