    And Usyk would’ve gotten up well before ten. And probably would’ve stepped on the gas the next round and KOed dubois ass even quicker. Simple as that.

    Usyk schooled dubois but the usual suspects try and act like he didn’t and dubois had his number. Lol :D

    That's the whole point though, we don't know if he would have beaten the count. It's all speculation because he took that rest time which indicates that he needed it.

    But it's all largely irrelevant because it was a low blow and the ref made the correct call.

    That’s the thing that a lot of people conveniently ignore. Every one is arguing the toss over whether it was low, borderline, not low at all and whether or not usyk would have beaten the count had it not been called by the ref.

    Usyk did pretend that Dubois had hit him in the balls, when he clearly didn’t. That’s a fact. There are interviews with Usyk claiming he was hit in the balls. At the actual time in the ring, Usyks reaction was that of a body shot and he was visibly shaking and really struggling with it (he didn’t even cup his balls once as most men do when hit there). He is lucky the ref called it, as there’s no way he was getting up in my opinion. That was one of the worst reactions to a body shot that I’ve ever seen. I think technically it was low, but we see body shots like that landed all the time without being called by the ref.
