Oleksandr Usyk weathered an impressive challenge from Britains Daniel Dubois to retain the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight titles at a packed Tarczynski Arena in Wroclaw, Poland; Usyk stopped Dubois in nine rounds but had to rise from the canvas from a punch the referee ruled was a low blow
The Ukrainian's resolve was sorely tested and Dubois' aggression continued with the Briton unloading big shots.Rapid-fire punches caught Dubois high on the head, dropping him at the end of the eighth round.
Usyk in contrast is one of the most imperious boxers at any weight class. The 2012 Olympic gold medallist became an undisputed champion at cruiserweight when he won the World Boxing Super Series, beating Mairis Briedis and Murat Gassiev to bring together all four of the major titles in that division.
Usyk has become an iconic figure in his homeland. His second fight with Joshua was put back so he could return to Ukraine when Russia invaded his country.
