    Dude, he was on the floor for almost five minutes looking like someone just shot him.

    You think he was going to jump up after nine seconds?

    Usyk was falling short and missing way more than normal even though Dubois is about his height with the same reach. His combos weren't as accurate either. When he finally landed with flush ones he took Dubois out. He used to be much sharper and accurate with more zip in his shots. Not power but zip. Go watch him in the WSB and he looked razor sharp with mongoose reflexes. His head movement was sensational and his left hand counter over the top was lightening fast.

    When the fist hit it was bellow the belt line and slid up with momentum. Marginal low blow is still a low blow.

    Shot was low. What was worse was when Usyk said he was ready to go ant the ref made him take more time.

    Are you blind?
    Low blow or not, he couldnt get up after that punch. That's why they didn't fight for at least four minutes.

    Nah foo is a slang word. It's not meant to be an insult.

    Going frame by frame, you can see Dubois's right hand initially begin to make impact just below the sun on the center of Usyk's belt. It comes up so that it initially appears to impact on the belt line; but even then, if you look close, that's where the uppermost portion of the fist is, and some of it is impacting the trunks below (where the cup protector happens to be).

    Pabon's one of my least favorite ref's on the planet and his insistance on making sure Usyk had all the time in the world to recover even when the champ said he was ready irritated the hell out of me. That said, he got the initial call right...for a change.

    That's what they said about Usyk before he schooled AJ twice and now KO'd Dubois. Fury has about 15% of the power of AJ and Dubois. Usyk won't have nearly as much to worry about.

    Very true, I didn't see it being too low myself, although I'm comparing to Golota and Ward nut shots....
