    Joyce beat Dubois who beat Hrgovic, who beat Zhang, who beat Joyce ,who beat Parker, who beat Zhang, but lost to Joyce.

    To make things more complicated we need:
    • Dubois vs Zhang
    • Parker vs Dubois
    • Joyce vs Hrgovic
    • Hrgovic vs Parker

    If Wilder doesnt retire, and beats one of the mentioned guys, now we would have proper clusterconfusion

    Parker-Dubois.

    Then if Parker wins, he gets IBF interum, and is a plausible fight for Usyk, and we are spared Usyk-Dubois II.

    What is wrong with Usyk vs Dubois, that low blow is debatable

    @dragansimic22A Dubois couldn't land a single blow on Usyk, lost all the rounds and got KOed. And yes, it was a low blow.

    He's already comprehensively beaten Dubois. It was not at all debatable, it was a bladder shot. Anything below the belt-line in a foul.

    I agree but I am in fear of seeing Joshua vs Usyk 3, I think Joshua wins that fight, Usyk is shot, gettin old and Joshua has luck on his side, three times is a charm

    Zhang v Parker rematch imo. Parker knocked down twice and won by 1 point, needs a run back.

    Dubois v Joyce Rematch as well for Dubois to right the wrong, people often forget Dubois was ahead on the cards.

    Fury hit Usyk with a flush uppercut if Usyk was shot he drops.

    Usyk trains like madman, there is another Fury fight, and he is getting older, he is already pushing his limits with age

    Out of that weird Gordian Knot I'd like to tangle it further by putting Dubois against Parker, Hrgovic against Joyce and Zhang against Dubois. Think we'd see some interesting results from those.

    Cmon.

    No, it wasn't debatable - it was textbook below the belt.

    Excellent refereeing.

    But.
    Referee had every reason to be watching closely - because it was a tactic all night for Dubois, he knew he couldn't win and turned up aiming low and hoping to get away with one (hence the lack of protest when it was called low).

    Usyk gets up and battles through anyhow if the ref starts counting

    Well, yeah. That is the point of voting for Parker-Dubois. My stated idea is that Parker could take the IBF mando from Dubois.

    I agree, Joshua has an excellent chance of becoming the top dog again, albeit for a short time.
