    It's not where the belt is, it's where his waist is, and that was NOT BELOW HIS WAIST!

    Now you're shifting the goalposts. You were happy to jump on the Dubois was "robbed" narrative, but after you've been called out you resort to this middle ground approach. Cope and seethe - 21-0 deal with it.

    Let's face it Fury is a headcase but assuming he comes in fit I think he will hit Usyk all night with a long jab and I think you are understating Fury's power. There is a good chance Fury stops Usyk.

    A low blow isn't necessarily a nut shot. In the video, it looks borderline to slightly low to me.
    The ref makes it clear what he considers low before the fight, and a low blow is any punch that lands below the beltline.
    That being said, Usyk has made himself really unlikable to me by constantly looking at the ref.

    It doesn't have to be a nut shot to be a low blow.

    That game backfired losing a once in a generation opportunity against AJ.

    Dubois has more power than Fury.

    I've hit one of my favorite sparring partners low plenty, and he would likely go Mike Tyson on me if I'd try to convince him it wasn't low because I didn't graze the bottom of his nutsack.

    What are you even on about? Facts are it was on the belt line and Dubois was robbed of that opportunity to end it.

    Cope with what? That Dubois got ****ed over and this is a black eye for the sport? Sure, ok.

    It hasn't made impact yet, that's why it's blurry. This is where it landed.

    By the way. Watch this picture. Lennox Lewis' beltline in the Holy 1 fight.

    Few inches higher than Usyk's. Actually almost under his chest LOL

    No, you're entire argument that Usyk was KO'd is built upon a shitheap of whataboutery. Well if the ref counted him, Usyk probably wouldn't have made the count! Well had Usyk made the count, Dubois would've dropped him again! We don't know now do we? The fact is, it was a low blow, Pabon ruled it a low blow, yes... Usyk milked it a bit too much and that annoyed me as well.

    ;) How many times did he complain of a low blow in that fight, and how many did anyone think were actually low?

    The reason you are seeing messages like those on twitter is because they are casuals who think you have to punch someone right in the nuts for it to be a low blow.
