Britain’s Daniel Dubois will be aiming to pull off a major shock on Saturday as he takes on Oleksandr Usyk in Wrocław, Poland, as the mandatory challenger for the undefeated Ukrainian’s World Heavyweight Championships.
Usyk will be putting his WBO, WBA and IBF titles on the line at the Tarczyński Arena, with this fight marking his long-awaited return to the ring. The 36-year-old has not fought since his split decision rematch victory over Anthony Joshua this time last year, but remains the clear favorite to defend his titles for the second time.
Dubois’ bid to get his promising career back on track following his damaging knockout defeat to fellow Brit Joe Joyce three years ago has seen him go on a four-fight winning streak.
The 25-year-old holder of the “regular” version of the WBA title, however, was less than convincing in his last appearance in the ring, with Kevin Lerena managing to knock the Londoner down three times before Dubois prevailed in the third round of their clash last December.
Here are all the details of tonight’s big fight, including start time, how to watch it and more.
Usyk vs. Dubois takes place tonight, Aug. 26, at the Tarczyński Arena in Wrocław, Poland.
The main card is set to start at 8 p.m. CEST local time, making it a 2 p.m. ET, 11 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada and a 7 p.m. BST start in the UK. Ring walks for Usyk and Dubois are expected at around 11 p.m. CEST, 5 p.m. ET, 2 p.m. PT and 10 p.m. BST.
Timing is subject to change for the main card based on the length of the undercard fights.
If you find yourself unable to view Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois locally, you may need a different way to watch the fight — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on the day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
