Security intervenes after Daniel Dubois shoves Oleksandr Usyk during face off ahead of blockbuster rematch

Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois almost got here to blows as security intervened during their face off ahead of their huge rematch.

On July 19, Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois will step into the boxing ring to face one another for a second time once they clash for the undisputed heavyweight title.

After Usyk defeated Tyson Fury for a second time this past December, Dubois stormed into the ring, demanding a rematch against the Ukrainian after their first bout in 2023 ended controversially.

Since then, ‘Dynamite’ Dubois has gone on a formidable three fight winning streak, along with his last win being an incredible knockout over Anthony Joshua.

Usyk and Dubois almost come to blows during face off as security intervene

Dubois was scheduled to return to motion this past February to tackle Joseph Parker in an enormous fight for the division, but he shockingly withdrew from the fight just days before.

Despite withdrawing from that fight, he has been booked to tackle Usyk with the 2 scheduled to fight on the 90,000 seater Wembley Stadium in London on July 19.

And ahead of their monumental clash for the undisputed title, the 2 faced off on the Wembley Stadium pitch earlier today of their first face off ahead of their rematch.

Although things have remained respectful between the 2 throughout the build-up up to now, they almost got here to blows after Dubois shoved the champion during their face off.

Security quickly ran in to separate the 2 up before things were in a position to escalate because the Brit called Usyk a ‘P—-‘ and started to laugh at their altercation.

Oleksandr Usyk all in favour of fighting Jake Paul in MMA

Ahead of his rematch against ‘Dynamite’ Dubois, Usyk’s team revealed that he’s all in favour of a possible future fight against Jake Paul, but under extremely different conditions.

In response to Usyk’s manager, the Ukrainian is all in favour of a surprise MMA fight against Paul, as ‘The Problem Child’ continues to tease a possible debut in the game.

Paul is scheduled to tackle Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in his next fight, and providing things go well for the controversial web sensation, he could potentially call Usyk out as his next opponent.
