A victory would help propel Dubois towards realizing this objective.
After an impressive year defeating notable opponents such as Filip Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua, Dubois was honored with IBF championship upon Usyk’s decision to seek a rematch against Fury.

Dubois plans to defend his IBF title early next year to align his schedule with the outcome of Usyk vs. Fury 2, indicating his strategic approach to securing a fight with the victor. Yet, much depends on the dynamic landscape of the heavyweight division, including the results of his upcoming fight with Joseph Parker.
