could usyk continue if that body blow to dubois was considered legal?

I think he would force himself up if the referee started counting.

I did consider it a low blow, though it was very close.

 

Probably not without really digging deep with sheer willpower. He wasn't faking that pain at all, regardless of whether it was technically a low blow or not.

If I were in Dubois' camp negotiating for a rematch, I would demand that the trunks not be worn over the belly button and a ref that isn't going to drop the ball.

 

No.

 

Dubois is the goods
But still a quit Job when he is getting outclassed.

 

Yes he would have. He completely dominated Dubois.

Same thing would happen again if they fought.

 

I think he would have but there is no way of telling.

 

No, if that fight was in england with an english ref, Usyk would have been counted out imo. No slight on Usyk, hes a generational great but fighters dont recover from body shots like that in 10 seconds.

 

This is silly. Usyk would have got up inside the count and sonned DuBois pretty much like he did. Maybe faster because Dubois might have thought he had an advantage and hurried into a shot big enough to lay him down. Much like what just happened to Joshua.

 

Shot was low, can't see how that can even be debated given Dubois' tendency to hit low ever since, did it a lot vs Hrgovic and did it again vs Joshua.

But had he needed too he would have gotten up, had some rough moments but would have survived and beaten Dubois just like he did.

 

Dubois is a dirty fighter. Sooner or later he will meet his Golota.

 

no. it was on the beltline. the ref was in the bag for AJ from jump.

 

Real men wear a thong like Corbett in the ring. Sorry that's how it is, I don't make the rules.
