    Really, it's funny.

    Before fighting Crawford, Spence was an elite 147-pound and then a package and overrated. Don't forget how he destroyed Ugás some time before.

    Usyk, a cruiserweight legend with a very good career at heavyweights, became overrated after beating Dubois. If you know boxing, you'll realize that punch was illegal.

    It's nothing to do with Usyk being overrated or underrated, although I do think him being branded as Heavyweight H2H monster and ATG Heavyweight was overrating him.

    No one is taking away from his prior achievements and hes an ATG Cruiserweight, but people have a right to express their opinion on what they think was a legit abdomen shot that could've stopped Usyk and he was fortunate to get the rest bite.

    As I've said countless times boxing is full of controversy and sometimes great fighters get a lucky break, Ali had it vs Norton, Napopes had it vs Muniz, and I believe Usyk had it vs Dubois last night.

    It happens but it doesn't take away from what Usyk had achieved prior to that and hes not a young man at aged 36.

    So this shows his belly button was just below level with the belt and the shot hit just below level, so he hit his his belly button not under. Legal shot?

    I think it's also important to see the anatomy of Usyk's upper body. Take a look at Usyk Joshua weigh in. You can see that his belly button is relatively high.

    But yet when Usyk was announced as the winner you couldn't see his belly button, nor when the controversial punch landed, nor when he was on the floor either.

    It's pointless because both sides can say the samething.

    No one is going to change their mind I believe it was a legit abdomen shot you don't which is fine different opinions.

    All I'll say though is that there have been plenty of examples throughout history of belt line shots being scored as legitimate body shot stoppages.

    Khan vs Judah

    Crawford vs Khan which was lower than Dubois's punch.

    Ward vs Kovalev 2

    Duran vs Buchanan

    And theres countless other examples aswell.

    On it and below it, rather than on it and above it makes it a foul as I understand it... And there's no way that a decent proportion of the glove wasn't below the belly button surely?

    I'm definitely more objective than you. I call it down the line, hence I had Loma beating Haney when it could have been spun a diff way.

    His trunks were not high. The blow was low Usyk is not some wimp, who went into an act the ref kept wanting him to take more time but he kept saying I am ready. Dubois was getting a boxing lesson ujp to that point and the lesson resumed after the low blow time out. I didn't have Dubois winning a single round. Tim Bradley went all in on the legal blow bs, gee I wonder why?

    I can't see how anybody who watches that clip can think that Usyk's navel is completely under Dubois' fist. His belly button and his dick would have to be practically touching for that to be the case. Look at his body anatomy in his weigh ins.

    His actions are also consistent with a low blow. Anybody who's sparred before knows that low blows drop you instantly while body shots drop you after you try to take your next breath. Usyk dropped immediately.
