British boxing legend Prince Naseem Hamed is backing IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois to overcome unified champion Oleksandr Usyk. The pair will meet for the undisputed title on July 19 at Wembley Stadium, exclusively live on DAZN, in a rematch of their contest two years ago.

Boxing's own Bat Signal lit up the Riyadh skyline on February 20 when IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois withdrew from his title defence against Joseph Parker. The pair were set to co-main Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol's undisputed light heavyweight title rematch two days later, but now the New Zealander had no opponent. Cue the scramble to ensure the former world champion could still get a bout in the ring - and then came a post on social media from coach Billy Nelson touting his man.
