Looks like they will have to be even more careful with his matchmaking in future. It took a very well paid referee to protect him from losing against someone he was meant to blast out early without breaking sweat.
I don't think he was hurt, and he took Joyce's bombs until his face caved in. Disagree on this one, not glass, but also not close to world class.
Dubois is a Glass Jawed stiff idiot. Won’t be surprised if Usyk gets his first stoppage at Heavyweight.
He got it. A little premature, but that mandible was getting shattered. Only the ref saved him from his inevitable canvas nap.
Jaw wasn't the issue though. He literally looked like he flinched and screamed when Usyk KOed him with a jab. Maybe flashbacks to his orbital breaking Vs Joyce? Some kind of trauma reaction? Who knows...
All people want to do is take about low blows, but the REAL story of this fight is another fragile mandible got exposed
Problem with Dubois is that he can box some, throws fairly hard punches but he can't FIGHT! When the going gets tough he fades like a cheap shirt in bleach. ... One other thing, that body shot to Usyk was borderline and he dropped like he'd been hit with an axe. Anybody who thinks Usyk could fight off Joe Frazier is insane
I've always maintained that Frazier would have been Usyk's toughest test in the 70s. Not Foreman or Ali.
