On Monday, April 28, the rivals already faced off at Wembley, where a staredown was held. Emotions flared during this meeting when Dubois lost his cool and shoved Usyk. Security immediately rushed to the boxers to prevent a possible conflict, but the Ukrainian simply smiled, taking no retaliatory action.

Let's add that Usyk holds the WBC, WBO, WBA, and IBO belts, while Dubois holds the IBF title.
