Wilder and AJ-Dubois leaving; what comes next for the heavyweights at ipl42bet?

Oleksandr Usyk, a Ukrainian, became the undisputed heavyweight champion for the first time in nearly 25 years.

Boxing's top class has always been the heavyweight division, and fans are finally witnessing rivalries resolved on the ring after years of disputes blocking the best matchups.

With Daniel Dubois' comeback and Usyk's spectacular wins over Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, what does the heavyweight division have in store?

Will the uncontested crown be at stake in Usyk-Fury 2?

The rematch between Usyk and Fury has been confirmed on December 21 after the initial October date was postponed.

Usyk, who is 37, may be nearing the conclusion of his incredible career, while Fury, 35, is seeking retribution for his first loss in the ring.

Whether this match will be for the indisputable championship is the main question.

The IBF has threatened to take away Usyk's title if he does not face his required opponent, thus he has asked for an exception.

While taking the proposal into consideration, the IBF recently reclassified Dubois's fight against Filip Hrgovic as a "interim" heavyweight title contest. If Usyk loses his IBF title prior to his rematch with Fury, Dubois will be promoted to world champion.

The remainder of the division will be significantly impacted by the IBF's decision.

What does Wilder do next?

Many fans found it difficult to see Deontay Wilder's recent harsh defeat at the hands of Zhilei Zhang.

After two losses, Wilder, who was once thought to be the most dangerous puncher in boxing, has not appeared to be the same person.

There could have been a serious psychological impact on the American from three close bouts with Tyson Fury. Defeats to Zhang and Joseph Parker in quick succession appear to be the end of the 'Bronze Bomber' era.

Although Wilder stated prior to the fight that he would give retirement serious thought if he lost again, he has not made a public statement about his plans.

If Wilder chooses to stick with fighting, he has a lot of choices and is still well-liked by Saudi promoters.

Nevertheless, Wilder will turn 39 in October.

Resurgent duo Dubois and AJ clash

34-year-old Anthony Joshua is experiencing a comeback after Usyk defeated him for the world titles in 2022.

With three stoppage wins in his last three fights, including two one-punch knockouts, the Watford warrior has found his confidence again.

On September 21, Joshua is scheduled to take the stage at Wembley Stadium. Daniel Dubois, a fellow comeback kid from the United States, is the front-runner to take on him.

Joshua may also consider Joseph Parker, a former opponent and world champion, given his recent victories over Zhang and Wilder.

But if the IBF deprives Usyk of his championship, the battle might be raised to a world-title match, which makes Dubois a desirable alternative.

It seems that Joshua and Fury will cross paths within the next 12 months, regardless of how Fury's rematch with Usyk turns out.

Joshua becoming a three-time world champion and Fury defeating Usyk would both greatly enhance the already highly hyped bout.

Prospects against. prospects in the heavyweight division

Excitement is being generated by a number of British heavyweight contenders, even outside of possible world title battles.
On July 27, Joe Joyce will resume his campaign to unseat Derek Chisora. Considering the aggressive tactics of both men, this looks to be a bloody battle.


It is planned for the fall for Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke to rematch. The highly anticipated second bout between them came about after their impressive first encounter in April finished in a draw.

On July 6 in London, Johnny Fisher, the undefeated "Romford Bull," makes his debut as the main attraction against Alen Babic. On July 20 in Birmingham, English heavyweight champion Solomon Dacres will challenge David Adeleye for the title and undefeated record.

Another interesting possibility to keep an eye on is Martin Bakole, a Congolese fighter residing in Scotland who leads the WBA heavyweight rankings. Moses Itauma, the teenage star from Britain, will also keep up his fast ascent and fight at least twice more this year. Seven of the 19-year-old's nine victories have come via knockout.
