Heavyweight Boxer Dubois Shakes Up Team After Usyk Defeat

In a significant move, heavyweight boxer Daniel Dubois has parted ways with his head coach Don Charles after 18 months of working together. The former world champion is now looking to rebuild and make a comeback after his July loss to Oleksandr Usyk.

Dubois has also recruited Sam Jones as his new advisor, signaling a major shakeup in his team. The 27-year-old boxer feels he needs a "fresh change and a new start" for the next phase of his career, where he aims to regain the heavyweight championship.

The fallout from Dubois' defeat to Usyk was dominated by questions about a pre-fight gathering organized by Dubois' father. While Charles defended the event, it appears to have contributed to the decision to part ways. Dubois has also dropped co-trainer Kieran Farrell from his coaching setup.
