WBA heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois will face off against Kevin Lerena on the undercard to Tyson Fury vs Derek Chisora 3 this weekend.
Dubois will be defending his WBA (Regular) title for the first time since knocking out Trevor Bryan to claim the belt earlier this year.
The fight has been confirmed as part of the undercard to Fury’s trilogy bout against Chisora in London.
Dynamite has only lost one fight in his professional career, losing to Joe Joyce in November 2020, while his South African opponent is unbeaten in eight years and boasts a record of 28 wins and one loss.
Since his defeat to Joyce two years ago, Dubois has bounced back to win all of his three fights and will now look to defend his crown.
