    First of all, that fight should never have been a SD. Anyone with half a a brain could tell you that. Anyone who scored that fight for AJ either doesnt know what they're watching or needs their eyes testing. There was only 1 winner. It was clear. And it was Usyk. Aj won 4 rounds at absolute best ffs!

    Secondly, it doesn't have to hit your balls to be a low blow you moron. Below the navel/top of the hip bone is low. Deal with it ye fanny. As for the trunks being hiked up...his trunks were below the navel for the whole fight ye halfwit, and the ref had already established where the trunks were and what would be considered low with the fighters pre fight. Hence why he called a low blow!! Like, you can't actually be this dumb/biased, can you?

    I had a dream in which Usyk countered the hard-charging Dubois in a fierce exchange and knocked him out, throwing Daniel out of the ring through the ropes. He later leaned over the unconscious Daniel and appealed to him about all those lies after the first fight...
    I know. Not very realistic, but I'll keep my fingers crossed that it will happen.

    I'm sick and tired of the guy who was aiming for holes on the verge of a foul all evening, often hitting much too low + the guy who after the alleged "knockout" on his opponent was unable to correct him and gave up as soon as it got tough is now making himself a victim of fraud and pretending to be offended and angry at what happened.

    This rhetoric that the punch was legal and Dubois was wronged is simply disgusting.

    However, leaving emotions aside - this fight is extremely dangerous for Oleksandr and I don't fully understand why he agreed to it. Dubois is on fire. They've drugged him to the limits of his abilities. From a soft guy, he suddenly became a tough guy who can handle any hardships. This, plus his strength, combined with the place where the fight will take place, spells trouble for the Ukrainian. They will do everything to make Dubois win, and the tactics are clear and no one is even hiding it. They will try to hit the bottom again, and where those punches land is irrelevant.

    Usyk must be very confident now. I keep my fingers crossed that he doesn't miscalculate. I dream of Usyk leaving undefeated as the best of all time. He doesn't need a defeat with such a turn, and I hope that doesn't happen.

    And screw Lennox Lewis who claims that Dubois knocked Usyk down and will win with him. Such rhetoric that ignores the fact where that punch landed is pathetic.

    idc what the rules say, in any other combat sport besides boxing that is a legit body punch, he hit him on the torso, not under the waist, on the lower bottom abs, just because he wears his trunks past his waist doesn't make it less credible. All boxers including Dubois abuse these rules, and it needs to be changed. Because if he did lower his pants and wore his trunks at waist level with olde everlast trunks, in the 1970s, that would just be another ko.
