I am not saying he would've won, he was losing on points, but the stoppage was a bit forced. Anyway, for a big percentage of the fans, this fight will be forever controversial for multiple reasons. What's left to see is the outcome of the appeal.
    The 10 count is LITERALLY 10 seconds...what do you think they are counting? They're fingers?

    And regardless of the count do you think Dubois wanted to continue?

      Zhang is right. Dubwha lacked heart. He was doing well in more than half of the fight till he got touched lightly even, not even huge punches. It's a surprising ending. He quit with little reason to.

        Obviously Joyce was never that good. Neither are Hrgovic, DuBois, or Anderson. They all suck. Badly.

        Zhang is slow, basic, and has no defense or head movement. Joyce and Hrgovic really are just awful boxers.

          Dubois KOed Usyk in 5 rounds.



          Dubois was blown out by Joyce first and damaged by Joyce. 0 controversy or biased ref jobs.

                Oh, God...! No, the 10 count was never ten seconds, it is written in the rules - "10 count". How do you see it some 100 years ago the referee being ready with some stopwatch: lurks around, holding in his hand and the moment a fighter hits the canvas, he presses the button? The normal 10 count usually is around 10 seconds, yes, but sometimes it is slower or faster.

                Yes, Dubois was willing to continue, but he was out of ideas and fire. But the point of arguing if Dubois would've continued is pointless, because the bigger argue is should this moment even would come if it wasn't for the 5th round decision? It is the same as assuming "if Usyk was taking the count, he would have stood".​

                  Your own biased thread with a poll shows most people saw that as a low blow, which it was. Get over it.

                  Joyce is a bum.
                  Zhang is a bum.
                  DuBois is a bum.
                  Hrgovic is worse than all of them.
                  Anderson is a bum in training. Hasn't even earned bum status.

                  Torrez is the future.

                      You must be up and ready to continue at 10. If your knee is still on the canvas at 9, it's over. This is not something new. In cases where a fighter has mistimed their rise from the canvas, usually this results in an angry protest. Dubois offered no protest at all, angry or otherwise.
