Daniel Dubois: Usyk didn't grab his balls did he? That wasn't a low blow! Martin Bakole quit many times when we sparred..

[IronDanHamza]

The rules of boxing say any punch landed below the navel is a foul. Usyk's navel was about level with the top of his trunks.That punch landed about 4 inches below the top of his trunks. It was a low blow, and one of many landed by DD. He was lucky not to have points deducted.

For what it’s worth, for the decades upon decades I’ve been watching boxing, the “Beltline” was always considered not to be low as far as I can recall

I’m aware I’m in what seems the extreme minority but for me, the punch didn’t seem low?

It’s neither here nor there, because it was ruled low. And, Usyk stayed down because of that, he could have got up and continued if it wasn’t, and, outside of that he totally dominated so I’m not saying it was unfair, the right man certainly won. Just differing opinion to most on it I suppose.

I think if Dubois beats Parker like I expect a rematch in the UK/Saudi could be interesting with Usyk aging a few years and Dubois seemingly maturing and growing as a fighter.

I've never agreed with the assumption he could have got up and gone on to win if it wasn't low. He was badly hurt in my opinion and there was time left in the round.

He might have been able to get through it but I think he'd have been in probably the most jeapordy of his career which is why he milked it for several minutes which is something you rarely ever see from low blows.
