Media Did Dubois hit Usyk low??

[BoxerMaurits]

So which is it ?:

 

[treelo]

i find it astonishing that the fighters(who lost) promoter thinks it wasnt a low blow

 

[Superzorro]

Usyk wears his shorts high for this very reason. His team knows he’s weak to the body. This wasn’t a low blow to me. Where do you think his balls are? On his stomach? I get the technical definition of “low blow.” But there’s also the practical definition. Usyk was not hit in the balls there. He got hit in the stomach.

i'm not sure you are familiar with the rules of boxing, being hit in the "balls" isnt really a thing, that would suggest you think a low blow is someone getting hit in the testicles, it isnt

So where on his body do you think he got hit?

The bladder which isn't legal. His punch hit the groin protector. That's why the WBA rejected Team Dubois' appeal over the decision.

the punch was ON the beltline. NOT a low blow. Dubois KO'd usyk. That's the bottomline. But then again this is boxing. PED users get celebrated (Lyin' Ryan), fighters get robbed on a cut (charly suarez) and champions blatantly duck their contenders (canelo)

no, he didnt
Dickpuncher Dubois punched below the beltline, the ref ruled it low, and Dubois had nothing for Usyk the whole rest of the fight. and was stopped 4 rounds later.
youre usually wrong and i admire your consistency in that regard.

maybe paper "champ" Dubois can do something differently this time around.

In the days of replay and overturns, that's not the case sir.
If they can review Navarrete-Suarez, they can review Usyk-Dubois.

Boxers wear their trunks higher so the belt line is often above their belly button. Mike Tyson once said some guys will try to pull their shorts all the way to their neck if they could.

"no biases" is nearly impossible to achieve in all of humanity, nevermind a historically corrupt sport such as boxing.

The WBA reviewed it after Team Dubois protested the referee's call. They had no issue with it. Were they just siding with Team Usyk? I doubt it. Twice as many people thought the shot was low. More recently the WBA didn't side with Tank when he took a knee. The president of the WBA came out and said that it should've been ruled a knockdown and that the ref shouldn't have stopped counting.
