Carl Froch believes that Daniel Dubois submitted himself to a loss after going down from an Oleksandr Usyk right hook in the fifth round of their undisputed fight at Wembley . The former super middleweight champion said he was ‘disappointed’ in Dubois for going down to a shot that looked as though it should not have put him on the canvas.
Simon Jordan claims Daniel Dubois’ dad threw a party at the boxer’s house on the morning of his fight with Oleksandr Usyk. Dubois turned up late to Wembley Stadium at around 8.15
Dubois was the beneficiary of this move by the IBF, picking up the interim title with a June 2024 stoppage of Filip Hrgovic and then being elevated to full champion after Usyk was stripped. Dubois then defended his title with a spectacular knockout of Anthony Joshua in Wembley Stadium.
