News about Daniel Dubois

Oleksandr Usyk's weight was incorrectly announced at the weigh-in ahead of his undisputed heavyweight title fight with Tyson Fury on Saturday. The Ukrainian fighter was initially announced as having tipped the scales at a career heaviest 233lbs on Friday. Usyk would have weighed in 12.6lbs heavier than his last fight against Daniel Dubois back in August 2023.

Enhanced from 8/1 to 10/1 - Sky Bet are offering a Price Boost for Oleksandr Usyk and Mairis Briedis to be knocked down in rounds 1-6 in their respective fights. Usyk hit the canvas in the fifth round of his last fight against Daniel Dubois - however - it was ruled a low blow and the Ukrainian was given time to recover. Usyk would go on to win that fight by knockout in the ninth round - but it did raise questions as to whether he can be hurt to the body. We will have to wait and see if a body attack a tactic Fury chooses to employ in their bout. Meanwhile, although Briedis is yet to be knocked down in his professional career - his opponent Opetaia has looked incredibly dangerous in his last two bouts - with back-to-back brutal knockout victories over Jordan Thompson and Ellis Zorro in the fourth and first rounds respectively.

Fans have claimed that Oleksandr Usyk has gotten under Tyson Fury's skin following an intense face-off ahead of their highly-anticipated undisputed clash. At Friday's official weigh-in Fury tipped the scales at 262lbs, the lightest he has been since taking on Otto Wallin in Las Vegas back in 2019. Meanwhile former undisputed cruiserweight king Usyk weighed in at 233lbs, more than 10lbs heavier than he was against Daniel Dubois in August of last year.

On social media, Anthony Joshua's longtime rival Jermaine Franklin has called out Daniel Dubois, who has stated that he would combat DDD on the Ring of Fire undercard on May 18. Last month, Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk were supposed to face each other in Saudi Arabia for the first disputed title match since 1999, but Fury pulled out after suffering a cut above his right eye in training. The Gypsy King suffered the injury while sparring with Agron Smakici and having stiches, causing his epic bout with Usyk to be postponed until May 18.

Welcome to Mail Sport's Soul of Sport collection. Our photographers have captured the best sporting performances of 2023 as you've never seen them before. Rather than simply focusing on the event, they've been reporting what's going on behind the scenes to get a different perspective on events.

On the Day of Reckoning card, David Haye was left raving over Daniel Dubois' "world class" appearance against Jarrell Miller, as he praised his 'perfect' conditioning and game strategy. With a confident and precise performance, 'Dynamite' delivered a letter to his opponents in the heavyweight division in the tenth and final round, handing Miller his first career defeat. Haye, the former world champion, was in a soaring mood after the barnstorming show when he singled out Dubois for adoration.

JEFF POWELL: Daniel Dubois was given the most frightening exam of his heart, desire, strength, and courage in Riyadh, and answered all those nagging questions by stopping man mountain Jarrell Miller just seconds before the final bell. Dubois' immediate promotion for his physical fitness has brought him right back to the elite class of the world's heavyweights. The boxing skills and punching power had never been seriously doubted, but the character and resolve had become a point of contention after a second taking of the knee in his youth.

Jarrell Miller has fallen out of the all-English judging and referee line up that will decide his match against British fighter Daniel Dubois. The two will meet together on 'Day of Reckoning,' with the American hoping to continue his unbeaten record against Dubois, who comes from the aftermath of a tense loss to Oleksandr Usyk. John Latham, Mark Lyson, and Kevin Parker, all from England, will adjourn the contest, with referee Michael Alexander, also of England, judging the contest.

JEFF POWELL: Anthony Joshua is not the only British heavyweight looking for revenge in the desert tonight. On the star-laden card in Saudi Arabia, Daniel Dubois needs a convincing victory over unpopular American Jarrell Miller. Dubois, who is just 26, is at the opposite end of his career as a result of AJ's, but he will have to top Miller in style in order to reclaim his place among the world heavyweight champions.

Both promoters are in Saudi Arabia for the 'Day of Reckoning' card, which promises to assist boxing greatly from a financial standpoint two days before Christmas in the Middle East. Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, and Daniel Dubois are among the fighters on a star-studded card, with Warren and Hearn as the chiefs, and perhaps nowhere more so than during negotiations for a potential face-off between Joshua and Warren's Tyson Fury.

Both the two teams will clash in the Middle East with a highly anticipated fight on a stacked card, and the two sides will clash at the weigh-in as Miller pushed Dubois, with the two sides having to be separated by security. In their face-off, it seemed that words were uttered, with security and promoter Frank Warren wary to break the two teams before they even stepped forward to go face-to-face. Miller continued to try and goad his adversary, who is the favourite for the fight and looking to bounce back from a humiliating loss to Oleksandr Usyk in August.

We are all set for one of the best war cards in history for the Day of Reckoning. Multiple current and former world champions are scheduled in a enthralling lineup of eight fights. This includes Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin, Deontay Wilder vs. Joseph Parker, and Daniel Dubois vs. Jarrell Miller, with six of the eight bouts being heavyweight clashes.

With Great Britain well represented at the 'Day of Reckoning,' the Saturday night is going to be a blockbuster evening of boxing action. With Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder competing in separate fights, the much-anticipated festival will be one of boxing's best nights of the year. All attention will be on the heavyweights, and if they do well, they could be in line to meet in 2024, putting an end to six long years of talks.

The co-main event, which takes place between former heavyweight world champions Deontay Wilder and Joseph Parker, has all the characteristics of a barn burner. This could be a lot more competitive match than some are expecting, with Wilder's explosive right hand and Parker's quick hands and admirable chin. Wilder is a respectable 1/6 favorite to beat Parker at the time of writing, while the New Zealander is a 4/1 underdog. Dmitry Bivol vs. Lyndon Arthur and Daniel Dubois vs. Jarrell Miller are two other fights that have piqued curiosity.

Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder's respective fights may be top the bill on December 23, but it was Jarrell Miller who stole the show at Saudi Arabia's press conference on Thursday. Miller, who is trying to resurrect his career after being banned from serving four positive drug tests in a 12-month cycle, has been causing a lot of buzz this week. On Monday afternoon, he was seen antagonizing AJ at the fighters hotel and continuing after Daniel Dubois on Thursday.

Following an traumatic confrontation in Saudi Arabia on Monday, Jarrell Miller has maintained that 'nobody gives a ***' about Anthony Joshua in the United States. When Joshua was being interviewed ahead of his fight with Otto Wallin in Riyadh on Saturday, Miller called him a 'p***'. Miller, who takes on Daniel Dubois this weekend, was supposed to be AJ's first adversary in the United States before failing three drug tests.

Anthony Joshua did a bizarre interview ahead of his showdown with Otto Wallin on Saturday night, giving some frank answers as he enters 'fight mode' before the Saudi Arabia showdown. In Riyadh, the British heavyweight is battling the Swedish fighter as part of the epic Day of Reckoning, which also features Deontay Wilder vs. Joseph Parker and Daniel Dubois vs. Jarrell Miller on the same night. Joshua knows that victory will likely set up a big fight against Wilder next year, but first, he must face Wallin, who has only lost once against Tyson Fury on points.

As the American confessed to stalking Daniel Dubois ahead of their heavyweight clash in Saudi Arabia, Jarrell Miller has argued he is 'wiser' after returning to boxing following a doping ban. Following a series of positive drug tests in a 12-month period, the American has been trying to resurrect his career after being banned for two years in December 2020. Before failing multiple tests, 'Big Baby' was supposed to face Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight title match at Madison Square Garden in 2019.

Daniel Dubois, a British heavyweight, has been given a new perspective of the time when he knocked Oleksandr Usyk with a low blow. During the fifth round of their heavyweight showdown in Poland, Frank Warren's Queensbury Promotions uploaded a video showing over six minutes of ringside action. In the fifth, Dubois struck the Ukrainian to the ground in a tumultuous blow to the body.

In a striking new Hollywood-style trailer for the massive Day of Reckoning boxing festival in Saudi Arabia next Saturday, Anthony Joshua was given the zombie treatment. In a preview for the huge line-up of boxing talent in Riyadh, the British warrior was depicted as the undead, alongside actors Deontay Wilder, Joseph Parker, Otto Wallin, and even promoter Frank Warren and Marion Johnson who were among the many celebrities to support the highly awaited card. Joshua will co-headliner against Wallin in the Middle East on December 23, along Wilder vs. Parker, with Daniel Dubois vs. Jarrell Miller and Dmitri Bivol against Lyndon Arthur being the other major fights fans can look forward to.

CHARLOTTE DALY: Turki Alalashikh has requested that the television presenters for the December 23 card lower their Pay Per View rates to ensure that everybody can enjoy the best boxing card in history. Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder will face Otto Wallin and Joseph Parker on the same card, dubbed "The Day of Reckoning." Later this month, Daniel Dubois, Jai Opeita, and Dimitry Bivol will appear on the Saudi Arabian card, making it one of the most exciting boxing activities in history.

On Monday, the former Love Island star, 20, wowed in a glamorous thigh-high split dress at the annual 2023 Beauty Awards in London. Gemma Owen posed in her eye-popping gown on the red carpet of the celebrity-studded event. In the chic lace dress, she displayed her toned torso in the cut-out ensemble and put on a leggy display.
