Biography

Daniel "Dynamite" Dubois is a British heavyweight defined by raw punching power. A pro since 2017 out of London, he rebuilt after an early setback into one of the division's most feared finishers, with the overwhelming majority of his wins coming by knockout.

He captured the IBF heavyweight title in 2024, highlighted by a fifth-round knockout of Anthony Joshua at Wembley. He then challenged Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed crown in July 2025 but was stopped in the fifth round.

Dubois answered that loss emphatically: in May 2026 he stopped previously unbeaten Fabio Wardley in the eleventh round in Manchester to win the vacant WBO heavyweight title, re-establishing himself among the division's elite.

As of June 2026 he is 23-3 (22 KOs) and the reigning WBO heavyweight champion.
