    Dubois knocked Usyk out with the best body shot of the decade. It was in no universe low and we all know Usyk is vulnerable to body shots. That’s why he wears his belt so high.

    Clear low blow but some refs may have called it legit… that being said it was Dubois’s only moment of the fight, 9 round shut out.

    That being said if the ref starts counting he gets up.

    It was iffy and very hard to judge IMO, what wasn’t iffy was the resulting boxing lesson and beating that ensued and DuBois quitting…

    Keep coping limey. Dubois was Usyks easiest fight at HW after Witherspoon. Fact.

    Usyk smoked Dubois and would do so again

    If the fight had been in US, UK, or Saudi it would probably have been called a bodyshot.

    Give it up - it is pointless. Lots of clowns around here are still pretending that Lewis beat Vitaly even though that fight should have gone to the cards.

    It was a low blow and one of Usyk's easiest performances. Made Dubois quit.

    If there was a count Usyk still would have got up and whooped him.

    if i understand correctly, a low blow is anything below the navel.
    so the location of the belt line of the trunks is not considered.
