An Olympic gold medalist, Usyk’s professional journey has also been one littered with the big prizes as he has captured undisputed honours at both cruiserweight and heavyweight. 

Last year, the brilliant Ukrainian captured all four belts at heavyweight with a memorable victory over Tyson Fury in Saudi Arabia

He would repeat the victory in an immediate rematch, a result that prompted Fury to retire shortly afterwards .  

On July 19, exclusively live on DAZN, Usyk will collide with Dubois for a second time as he looks to become undisputed ruler once again. 

He will go into that fight without Krassyuk at his side, but it appears that the separation is amicable. 

"It's been a tremendous journey -- 12 years of unbelievable success. Two young dreamers met each other to change the game, back in 2013, I gave you my word and kept it,” wrote Krassyuk on his own Instagram.

“At the time, no-one believed we were capable of achieving what we set out to do. But by the grace of God, we completed the mission impossible.”

Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr will be streamed exclusively on DAZN PPV, Saturday, June 28.  Buy the PPV now here
