Looks legal to me. But we'll never know if Usyk would have got up if the count was started.
Fish eyes will obviously push for a rematch.
even if Usyk had gotten up before the 10 count he was badly hurt by that legal bodyshot. If Usyk was not giving 5 mins to recover, Dubois could've ended the fight in that round.

Dubois would have finished him imo. He was hurt badly.
Indeed I stand corrected - it turns out Usyk's belt line is not straight, and the edge is exactly where you put the red circle, making it appear like a (poorly done) manipulation. That's why I repeatedly asked for the pic without the red circle (which would have cleared this up). Anyway, an honest mistake, for which I apologize.

Usyk was not given 5 min - he told the ref he was ready to fight after around 2 min or (would have to check the exact time), but the ref told him to take more time (though not 5 min) - you can hardly blame Usyk for that.
Pure speculation what would have happened if Usyk had been given a 10 count. We all saw how he came back just shortly after that.
The idea it was a low blow is a bit of smokescreen. Even if it was 6 inches higher it would still hurt as much, its not as if ddd hit usyk s balls?
Usy k needs to learn to defend bodyshots
