Oleksandr Usyk left no doubt in his rematch with Daniel Dubois on Saturday night at Wembley Stadium in London. Usyk re-captured the undisputed heavyweight crown with the fifth-round KO. In case you missed it, here’s a look at the KO.

Fans and analysts were impressed, but Usyk’s peers and the fighter fraternity took to social media to share their admiration for the all-time great.

WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson, forever the student of the game, shared his glowing respect for Usyk.

Former undisputed lightweight champion George Kambosos Jr. called Usyk an all-time great.

Former world champion and DAZN analyst Sergio Mora call him “an incredible all time great fighter.”

Former 140-pound champion Devin Haney called Usyk “a BAD MF!”

Former 154-pound champion, Julian “J-Rock” Williams had an interesting take on the Usyk-Dubois situation.

In case you missed the results from the event, here’s how all of the fights on the DAZN card ended.

What’s Next For Usyk?

After the fight, Usyk said he wanted to rest. If there is anyone who has earned it, it’s him. A third fight with Tyson Fury is looming. He also mentioned a potential meeting with Dereck Chisora or Anthony Joshua. It sounds like Usyk is looking for the fights that will carry the largest payday.

Who can blame him?

If you need any more proof, check this moment out following the fight.

Could Jake Paul face Oleksandr Usyk in the former’s long-awaited Professional Fighters League debut? That event would be quite the shot in the arm for the PFL. It would also be a significant boost to Usyk’s wallet.

What’s Next for Dubois?

That was a tough and devastating KO loss.

I’d expect to see Dubois in the ring again some time in the first quarter of 2026. He could get a get-right opponent or he could step in with one of the fighters trying to climb the ladder to get a title shot like Agit Kabayel or Joseph Parker.

If I were running his career, I’d put him in with a less dangerous opponent. He needs to get his confidence back up. He’s only 27 years old which is a baby in the heavyweight division. His career must be handled appropriately from here.

He’ll be OK, but the wrong matchmaking could compound the issue Usyk created for him.
