I just realized the "low blow" controversy was stupid the whole time?

    That's also true. Just like if ref gives you 5 minutes you can take it.

    Anyone thinking Usyk was getting up within a ten count if he had to is either blinded by fandom or dksab! He could barely sit up let alone get to his feet. It was a borderline shot, but was ruled illegal /low by the ref who saw it as low.

    Explain?

    If in a football match a ref allows a few bad fouls, players cotton on and will continue

    No difference here bozo

    If a referee is not properly calling low blows, that’s a failure of the referee.

    in the end, it does not matter. why? because it was the REF who was in the ring and close enough to have ruled it a low blow. all the whining can not change this.
    just drop it

    2-0 Usyk. Not a low blow. You probably think a low blow only consists of being struck in the nuts. It doesn't.
