The Ukrainian, who answered just one question, will take on Dubois in Wroclaw on Saturday with his WBA, IBF and WBO belts on the line.
Ukrainian hero Usyk has embraced the role of home favourite during this fight week but took the unusual step on Wednesday of spending some of his open workout by enthusiastically dancing, which delighted his ringside fans.
“My preparation is all good. We do a lot of work, with swimming, we play football, we dancing, yeah. Enough?” He was given a painting produced by Oleksandr Klymenko after his brief answer two days out from fight night in Poland. “The icon is made on the wooden board from the ammunition to the shell that were used by our soldiers defending Bakhmut.”
