Was in two minds but it's low enough for me. I wouldn't have been desperately mad if it'd been called a legit shot but I think it's also reasonable to call it low.

You can't argue against this image.... it's clearly low and before hitting the beltline his cup was hit.

The ref immediately signalled to Usyk that it was not an KO, so he didn't bother to get up. You can't conclude that was going to be a KO if there was a count, because unlike Dubois, Usyk has heart and probably would have got up. Dubois couldn't even take control of the remainder of the round after it started again...he lost the rest of the round.

They only showed the alleged low blow like once, maybe twice... I could not see much, looked like it was right on the bottom half of the trunks and half just below. But can't tell because they did not show it!

Interesting to note: It was not a liver shot... It was either way, to the pit of the gut, so Usyk could have been acting... but it is hard to imagine that a gut shot would do that... Who knows?

Pit of the gut for sure, not his balls and right on the bottom half of the belt line. It's a legit call from Pabon but other refs might legitimately have called it different. Is what it is.

Looking back, it looks lower than higher. Still can’t be certain. I’m fine calling it low and would also be fine if it was contested for a rematch. But Dubois DID quit from a jab. That IS a certainty.

No nane Kevin Larena knocked Dubois down three times last fight in the first round. Dubois gassed. You Usyk nut huggers are hikarious. Usyk looked terrible against a a gatekeeper heavyweight.

dominated joshua twice. fury ducked him to fight a 0-0-0 ufc star lmao. u mad doggie??

[4truth]

actually, it looked lower that time. borderline

[Knuckle sandwich]

Dubois doesn't have the dog in him, he needed to rough usyk up, not land a punch step back and take a look at usyk

[hitmanjosh]

B.S., Usyk lost 1st before Dubois quit like a bit_ _! Facts

[Inspired]

actually i take that back, looking at it from other angles, it isnt below the belt line.
dubois was robbed.

Complaining about the low blow won't overshadow the fact that Dubois basically quit.
