According to Ringo "insider" Mike Coppinger, we could soon see a match between Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois. The match should take place at Wembley on July 12, and boxing fans are already excited about these announcements. The two had a match two years ago, when Usyk won with a knockout in the ninth round in Wroclaw.
Dubois' coach, Don Charles, spoke to the media about this potential match, which could really cause public reactions and produce the excitement factor that we have been missing for years. The 27-year-old seems like a much more prepared fighter than back then, and Charles seems optimistic about this match, but also cautious.
- If Usyk accepts this fight and gets back in the ring with Dubois, I'll have to salute him - Don Charles said in an interview with Box Nation and continued: - And the first time we thought we were ready, we thought we had a convincing victory, but we were denied.
Umar Ahmed reacts
Box Nation journalist Umar Ahmed then asked Dubois' trainer if he thought Usyk would have managed to get to his feet if the referee had counted him out after the previously mentioned controversial blow.
He, on the other hand, is not sure that he would have gotten up, considering that he had 'shut him down'. However, he emphasizes that this is a gamble, focused on his fighter putting an end to everything and defeating Usyk.
- I can only say what I saw firsthand. No, he would not have gotten up. His central nervous system was shut down. That's my opinion, and I've talked to experts who understand human anatomy better than I do and who have also confirmed it to me. He was in a convulsion, but that's in the past now... - said Don Charles and concluded in a slightly threatening tone:
- If Usyk is indeed our next opponent, we will make sure there is no discussion when Daniel hits him again. It will be the final blow.
