Look...you don't need to hit somebody in the balls to foul him. ANYTHING below the foul line (beltline) is a low blow. If you look at the replays, which are all over the internet, Dubois hit Usyk 6 inches below the beltline. A waistband could be 1/2" wide or 8" wide. It has NOTHING to do with marking a low blow. The beltline is no thicker than a pencil line. It connects the top of the hipbone to the navel -- which are in horizontal alignment. The trunks are supposed to be worn on that line and Usyk's are. ANY punch under that line is a low blow -- so take another look. Usyk won the fight very easily but he really punished Dubois the last 4 rounds because he was very angry about the deliberate foul.

That was a body shot look at the film look where the belt was above the belly button. Simple as that look at the trunks and how they were just over his belly button.

@@fosu2006 There's no "BELT" on a pair of boxing trunks. There's a waistband that has NOTHING to do with marking a low blow, because the waistband could be 1/2" wide or 8" wide. The top of the trunks, the top of the protector, and the foul line -- which runs from the top of the hipbone to the belly button, which are in horizontal alignment -- are supposed to ALL be in good alignment. Occasionally someone's trunks are a little high or low. Dubois's trunks were higher than Usyk's. Usyk's were dead on the navel. He's a consummate professional. The whole of the punch landed on his trunks. It wasn't borderline. The whole punch was low and foul. At first Johnny Nelson said the punch was legal because that's what Don Charles was saying. But after Nelson studied the video from a perfect angle he said ""The debate is over. The entire glove landed below the navel"" Meaning it was an egregious low blow and there's NO question about it. Other BRITISH CHAMPIONS: Tony Bellew and Carl Froch, also said and wrote, the punch was low. One would have to be blind, daft, or ridiculously nationalist, biased, and willfully ignorant, to study the video, and still say that punch was legal. You can fool some of the people all the time, and all the people some of the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time.
