    Boxers Daniel Dubois and Oleksandr Usyk are reportedly in talks to fight at Britain's Wembley Stadium on July 12 for the undisputed heavyweight title


    38-year-old Usyk is undefeated in 23 fights and has a win over Dubois, stopping him in August 2023.

    The 27-year-old has won three fights since that defeat, securing a knockout in each.

    Usyk has suggested he will retire after two more bouts.
