The boxing world is reeling after Tyson Fury dropped a bombshell reaction to the upcoming Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois rematch, boldly declaring, “Dubois will destroy him this time!” Fury’s fiery statement, made just hours ago, has reignited debates around the highly anticipated July 19 showdown at Wembley Stadium, where Usyk will defend his WBA, WBO, and WBC heavyweight titles against Dubois’ IBF belt in a clash for undisputed glory!

Fury’s Explosive Prediction

Tyson Fury, speaking on a live X Spaces session this morning, didn’t hold back his thoughts on the rematch between Usyk and Dubois. “I’ve fought Usyk twice, and I know what he’s made of—he’s tough, but he’s human,” Fury said, his voice brimming with intensity. “Dubois has the power to end him. That low blow nonsense from 2023? Dubois was robbed! He’s learned, he’s stronger, and mark my words—Dubois will destroy him this time!” Fury’s prediction comes after his own back-to-back losses to Usyk in 2024, where the Ukrainian outpointed him in both fights to claim and retain the unified heavyweight titles.

The controversial first fight between Usyk and Dubois in August 2023 remains a sore point for many in the boxing community. Dubois floored Usyk in Round 5 with a punch deemed a low blow by the referee—a call Dubois’ camp still insists was legal. Usyk recovered and stopped Dubois in Round 9, but the incident has fueled Dubois’ hunger for revenge. Fury, who has been vocal about his own grievances with Usyk, clearly sees Dubois as the man to dethrone the Ukrainian champion.

The Rematch Build-Up

The Usyk-Dubois rematch, set for July 19 at Wembley Stadium, is shaping up to be one of the most explosive fights of 2025. Usyk, now 38, remains undefeated at 23-0 (14 KOs) and has solidified his status as a generational great after defeating Fury twice. However, Dubois, the 27-year-old IBF champion, has been on a tear since his loss to Usyk, with standout knockouts against Anthony Joshua in September 2024 and a hard-fought win over Joseph Parker in February 2025. Dubois’ coach, Don Charles, recently claimed the punch that floored Usyk in their first fight was “from the Gods,” a sentiment Fury seems to echo.

Usyk’s camp, however, remains unfazed. Promoter Alex Krassyuk responded to Fury’s comments, saying, “Tyson can say what he wants—he’s had his chances. Oleksandr is ready to prove once again why he’s the best.” Usyk himself, known for his deep faith, previously expressed frustration with Dubois’ “God” remark, stating, “He should not have said it.” The tension between the two camps is palpable, with the low blow controversy still a major talking point.

Fans and Experts Weigh In

Fury’s bold prediction has set the boxing community ablaze. On X, fans are divided: “Fury’s just salty he couldn’t beat Usyk—Dubois doesn’t stand a chance!” one user posted, while another countered, “Fury’s right—Dubois has the power to shock the world!” Former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, offered a more measured take: “Dubois has improved, but Usyk adapts like no other. It’ll be a war.”

Promoter Frank Warren, who previously backed Fury in his fights against Usyk, commented, “Tyson knows what it takes to face Usyk. If he says Dubois can do it, people should listen—but Usyk’s a master.” Meanwhile, Eddie Hearn, who has pushed for a Fury vs. Joshua fight, added fuel to the fire: “If Dubois pulls this off, we’re looking at a whole new heavyweight landscape.”

What’s at Stake?

The Usyk-Dubois rematch isn’t just about revenge—it’s for the undisputed heavyweight crown, with all four belts on the line. For Usyk, a win would further cement his legacy as one of the greatest heavyweights ever. For Dubois, it’s a chance to erase the ghosts of 2023 and establish himself as the new king of the division. Fury’s prediction has only heightened the stakes, putting extra pressure on both fighters to deliver.

As July 19 approaches, the boxing world is left wondering: Can Dubois fulfill Fury’s prophecy and “destroy” Usyk, or will the Ukrainian champion prove once again why he’s untouchable? One thing is certain—this rematch is already a powder keg waiting to explode.
