After TNT Sports confirmed its maiden Pay Per View boxing event, Oleksandr Usyk will aim to prove his selling power in the United Kingdom.
The new network, which emerged from the ashes of BT Sport, will broadcast Usyk’s mandatory heavyweight title defense against Daniel Dubois.
Usyk vs Dubois occurs on Saturday, 26th August, live from Poland. The UK and Irish fight fans can watch the highly anticipated unified title fight live exclusively on TNT Sports Box Office.
Usyk vs Dubois Pay Per View price
The price point is confirmed at £19.95, a reduction from recent events featuring the Ukrainian.
IBF, WBO, and WBA heavyweight champion Usyk will defend his crown at the 45,000-capacity Tarczynski Arena in Poland. The fight marks Ukrainian Independence Day weekend.
British contender Daniel Dubois will be in the opposite corner. He is looking to claim his first full world title, having previously held the little-regarded WBA [Regular]non-title belt.
Usyk currently holds a 20-0 record as a professional. After a glittering amateur career that included an Olympic gold medal at the London 2012 Games, the Ukrainian turned pro in 2013.
In a decade of destruction, he became the undisputed champion of the cruiserweight division. Usyk unified all four belts against Murat Gassiev in the final of the World Boxing Super Series in 2018.
After moving up to heavyweight, Usyk beat British fan favorite Derek Chisora before defeating Anthony Joshua twice. He initially won his current titles and defended his three heavyweight straps in a repeat win.
His opponent, Daniel ‘Dynamite’ Dubois, is 19-1, a professional fighter with 18 knockout wins.
The 25-year-old Brit suffered his only career defeat after suffering a fractured eye socket against Joe Joyce in 2020.
Since then, Dubois has completed four wins to earn his title shot.
