Audley Harrison explains how Daniel Dubois can produce upset against Oleksandr Usyk
Watch Usyk vs. Dubois live on ESPN+ (US only)
British boxing legend Audley Harrison has given some advice to Daniel Dubois and explained how to beat the unified world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.
Dubois is set to travel to Poland next week to face one of the world's best pound-for-pound fighters and produce what would be a huge upset.
While Dubois has immense punching power in his arsenal, it may not be enough to stop Usyk who is known for his slick footwork inside the ring, but Harrison believes his fellow countryman can bring the IBF, WBA and WBO world heavyweight title belts back to British shores.
In a recent post on X, Harrison used his 2000 Olympics win over Alexei Lezin as a starting point for how Dubois can overcome Usyk.
"The way you beat Usyk (just like how I beat Lezin) is with Educated pressure," Harrison wrote.
"You can't walk in & land a shot, you need to take away his strengths; add feinting, take away his jab, step around, hit body, hip & arms repeatedly (high tempo) high volume jabs, he won't see RIGHT."
