An aspect of Usyk's career nobody talks about

15 years ago he was 22.

 

Another deranged post from the baby reindeer stalker

Fury low blows? Lol

 

Yeah, he has some sportsmanship.
The sport is generally full of scumbags.
So when somebody just does what you're supposed to do, it's considered strange.

Some other 'ATG' mentions:
Holyfield: headbutts
Tyson: wrenching elbow joints, eating ears

 

Not this again. The vast majority of fighters and coaches agree that it was a low blow, and body punches result in different physiological signs. To me, Dubois' reaction was the most telling. He didn't even argue, even though he supposedly just became the unified HW champion. He knew what he was doing was against the rules. There was a video where you could see Dubois throwing some 20 low blows. The narrative is that Usyk always complains about even legal body shots, while in reality, based on that video alone, Dubois was lucky he wasn't given any penalties or even DQ'd for repeated low blows. I've never seen any objective analysts or boxing fans saying Usyk fakes body shots. There is always a hidden agenda – a disgruntled Joshua or Fury fan, or a dislike for Ukrainians or what have you.

 

Watch the fight without Fury fanboys glasses, but you can't get them off, can't you?

 

Send video of the low blows
Thank you

I did see Fury hurting him to the body a few times, also rattled him with an uppercut

I'm glad the rematch is set, as I enjoyed the fight

The irony, why don't you take the glasses of hate off and watch the fight?

Who is Joshua fighting next? Whyte?? Lol

 

It's been discussed at length, over the years. Being a classy guy with a fun personality who also happens to possess elite footwork and educated hands while being a bona fide giantkiller are the aspects of him that grew such a loyal international fanbase (starting even before the pros).

I don't trust Usyk haters; they fail the vibe check.

 

Fights clean but I don't like his reactions to body punches because he complains about them being low sometimes.

 

I'd say that's a very reasonable reaction for those us who have penises.

 

Fakes low blows.

 

It’s laughable when, foul tactics are highlighted, some people invoke the old “It ain’t tennis, you know” OR “If you ain’t cheat’n’ you ain’t try”n’”.

As if they’re happy to accept and have perpetuated, negative features of the sport, features that would likely deter new fans jumping on board.

Usyk fights perfectly clean and I’ve noted same before, myself. As such, he has earned every right to expect to be treated exactly in kind - and that includes him highlighting fouls that refs let go.

Fury clearly tried to set up so that Usyk might be viewed as a sook even in the event of Tyson’s punches straying, going on or below the belt -

- and several of Fury’s punches did go there - without any action by the ref.

Even the question of where Uysk’s trunks sit was a false set up.

They sit perfectly. As such, hit Olek below the belt, then you have legitimately fouled him - no illusions.

Also, there are no illusions that Usyk can take it to the body - do they still hurt? Of course. Usyk isn’t exactly Robinson Crusoe in that regard.

Then look at where Dubois’ and Fury trunks sit - like, am I taking crazy pills? Lol.

Fury hitched his trunks for a joke photo shortly following the Dubois fight - they weren’t far above where he normally wears them - self incrimination, much? Hit him an inch or two below the nipple, then you’ve “fouled” him.

So yeah, Usyk definitely deserves considerable extra credit for keeping it pristinely clean - he doesn’t need fouls to crutch deficiencies in his game otherwise. His victories have been achieved in the most pure of manners.

People should understand when they’ve finally got a supreme ambassador and advertisement for the sport - at every level and, at HW, no less. For certain others, those facts seem to be somewhat lost on them.

As for the projected rematch in December, can we expect a pro Fury ref again (deliberately intended or not) and a few dodgy judges?

For all the cleanliness in the fight - Usyk basically made it so. He mooted foul tactics/poor officiating by simply being so much better than Fury via pure boxing ability.

Will the officials go even harder next to tip it in Fury’s favour? - enough to eradicate any positive reviews of the fight that has just gone down - only to give boxing yet another black eye?
