Underdog or Champion? Betting Odds for Usyk vs Dubois

The latest twist in the career of Oleksandr Usyk is set to take place this weekend with the bookmakers in agreement that win number 24 in fight number 24 is on the cards.
Usyk is taking on English fighter Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium on Saturday night in a rematch that has been two years in the making.

The two last faced-off in August 2023, with Usyk controversially coming away with a ninth round stoppage after he could have been counted out himself in the fifth if a low blow had been deemed legal.
As it was Usyk came back and took another win in his legendary career – a total the bookies are sure he will add to this weekend.
Bet365 have Usyk at 3/10 to take a win, while Ladbrokes and Betvictor are both pricing him at 1/3 to enjoy a victory.
For those looking at an outside bet, Dubois is coming in at 13/5 with Bet365 and 11/4 with Ladbrokes as well as  5/2 with Betvictor.
The odds are not surprising when you consider Usyk is 23/23 in his career so far with 14 of those wins coming via knockout.
After two points victories over Tyson Fury, the bookies have Usyk at 5/4 with Bet365 to get back to enjoy a knockout win this weekend while Ladbrokes have him at 11/10 and Betvictor have the KO priced at 6/5.
Dubois meanwhile is known for his knockout power having enjoyed 24 knockout wins in just 24 fights.
His two defeats in that time came against Joe Joyce and Usyk, but the bookies believe there is a chance he could show that power against Usyk this time round.
That is because Bet364 have Dubois at 4/1 to knockout Uysk this weekend while Ladbrokes have him at 11/1. Betvictor have Dubois at 11/1 as well to show the world what he can do and leave Usyk on the canvas.
Both Bet365 and Betvictor have the draw priced at 16/1 on the night while Ladbrokes have it out at 18/1.
For Usyk this fight could be the defining one of a career that has seen him dominate the heavyweight division over the last few years.
He has fought Anthony Joshua twice, Dubois himself and Tyson Fury twice in that time and is still undefeated in that time and it is no surprise that between his pedigree and the knockout power of Dubois, the bookmakers are in agreement that this fight probably will not go the distance. 
Bet365 have the odds at 8/13 that the fight will end early, while Ladbrokes have the odds at 8/15 and Betvictor have it at 4/7.
For the fight going the distance Bet365 have it at 6/5 and Ladbrokes have it at 11/8 and Betvictor have it at 5/4 – which if it did come off would surely leave the door open for part three of this match-up in the future…
