Usyk Vacates IBF Title, Declares It ‘Present’ To Joshua, Dubois

Undisputed heavyweight world champion Oleksandr Usyk confirms he will vacate one of his four titles, the IBF belt, to Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois to claim on September 21.

Recall that the Ukrainian, 37, became the first heavyweight to hold the IBF, WBO, WBA, and WBC belts when he beat Tyson Fury in a split decision in Saudi Arabia last month.
