Big fights bring big money – and for Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois, their July 19 rematch at Wembley is set to be the most lucrative night of their careers.
According to News Bet365, the total purse for the undisputed heavyweight title clash will hit an astonishing $203.5 million. Usyk, the reigning WBA, WBO, WBC, and IBO champion, will pocket $132.28 million, while IBF titleholder Dubois will earn $71.22 million.
That’s right – both men will be walking away with record-breaking paydays. For comparison, Usyk earned $114 million in his rematch win over Tyson Fury and $45 million in their first showdown.
The Stakes Are Sky-High
The rematch on July 19 at Wembley Stadium will crown the true king of the heavyweight division. All five major belts are on the line in this historic showdown.
These two last met in August 2023 in Wroclaw, Poland, where Usyk delivered a dominant ninth-round knockout to retain his unified titles.
Tensions Rising Ahead of Fight Night
The build-up to the rematch hasn’t been short on drama. During the press conference, Usyk and Dubois reignited controversy over their first meeting – specifically, the infamous low blow from Dubois that sparked heated debate worldwide.
With history, money, and legacy all on the line, this fight is shaping up to be one for the ages.
