Usyk took multiple legal body shots after the low punch and they had little effect. If this was a body shot then surely he wouldve folded to the legal ones. Noone could get that hurt to the body and then not respond when hit there again. It looked like a bladder punch to me, but as you rightly say noone knows what Usyk felt. Calling Usyk a cheat and all that bollocks is just garbage. Nothing he did was outside the rules. Beterbiev did drop Usyk and he got up and beat him.

I was eager to hear your point, my view was the low blow, whether or not it did hurt Husik did not have a real impact on the match outcome

The whole of Dubois glove was BELOW the top of Usyk's shorts (which weren't pulled up too high). The Ref had clear sight of the blow and correctly ruled it low straight away..Usyk told the ref he was ok to continue after a couple of minutes but the ref gave him more time....no controversy here at all...

“Roll out a cot ….” 😅😂😂

If you are hurt in a part of the body that, according to the rules, you should not protect because it is not legal to be hit there, the opponent should not have an advantage after such a hit.

*Below the belt* is the term. That was *NOT* below the belt! That was *ON* the belt. Make of it what you will. I personally think it wasn't a low blow. Jermell dropped some dude with a similar punch.

People are creating controversy where there isn't...many things can be true at the same time and here's what I saw...1. Usek got hit with a low blow...9 times out of 10 that punch is called low and we move on just like Crawford vs Khan...if it wasn't initially called a low blow that would be fine too because it was close enough...its one of those punches if you get away with it the ref comes over and signals and says "keep em up"....2. Usek definitely played futbol/football/soccer with it and overdramatized it but he can do that because it was a foul 3. Usek can't take body punches we seen it against Joshua and that punch if it was 5 inches higher could have ended the fight...4. The ref was definitely protecting the home fighter so anything close would have been called a low blow and he made the home fighter take more time then he wanted...all things can be true but a foul is a foul so let's just move on...Dubois had his chance but now the jury is definitely out on Usek, just like most Russian/Ukrainian boxers, he can't take body punches

Very true about the customized protection cups. DLH was a good example. So was Lennox and Rahman. They pretty much had their foul protectors up by their armpits in certain fights.

#1 - the shot WAS technically a "low blow" - below the belt - but was NOT a groin shot and should NOT have been called as such - it should have been waved off - it was on the belt in the lower body but NOT the groin due to "high trunks" and the Referee should have defined that at the START of the fight BEFORE the opening bell during the "touch'em up" speech - they always do - they give final instructions and hold their hand on the fighter and state " anywhere above here is legal " if they deem the fighter to wear HIGH trunks which Usyk had #2 - Usyk did NOT make the call and he did NOT embellish the degree of pain - he was HURT from a hard BODY SHOT - so would YOU have been - that shot chops down trees #3 - Usyk WOULD have beat the 10-count even if in pain #4 - it would have had an effect on the fight as Dubois would go back there IMMEDIATELY amplifying the effect - #4 - would the fight have been stopped by KO ? - difficult to say but likely NOT - Usyk weathers it enough to get out of the round #5 - who wins? - Usyk late

“That hip line signifies where we wear our belt. That is our low blow point. So what a low blow is, any time the majority of the glove is below that hit line.

Teddy you’re World 🌎 class 🗽 I can’t stop listening to you for life

Spot on. At last someone talking some boxing sense without an agenda

It was low. The ref did a good job. Everyone so used to seeing certain fighters be allowed to bend the rules and get their own way especially against certain opponents, that when the rules are actually enforced and things are fair they think they’re being cheated. It shows how spoiled and entitled certain people have been that when we go back to fairness they cry cheating 😂

Ref jack Reiss: "Simon says put your hands on your hips. You feel the top of two bony structures. Take two fingers until they meet. That line is your hip line. Everyone’s belly button is different, you can’t use the belly button. “That hip line signifies where we wear our belt. That is our low blow point. So what a low blow is, any time the majority of the glove is below that hit line. On the hip line is legal, it doesn’t stop being illegal until a majority of a glove is above it. That’s why when the fight begins, we identify the hip line. That’s basically it. “The hip line never moves, the belly button changes, the waistband changes. You should visualise as a ref where that hip line is.”

It was low and they get up to 5 minutes to recover. Enough said.

What is more probable? Usyk is counted and then gets up and beats the crap out of Duboisie? or Dubois winning by stoppage after Usyk getting up? I think is crystal clear.

Jeison Rosario somewhere saying, “so, I should have called my KO at the hands of Charlo a “low blow””.

It has happened to me in sparring. The Kidney Protector and Cup can get driven into your Nuts if you get hit just below the belt, but not directly in the Groin!

What I don't get is people are saying it's not a low blow, which means he didn't get hit in the junk at all. Therefore implying Usyk, a world champion boxer who has trained and conditioned to take body shots his whole life, wouldve been put down and stopped in the 5th round from a punch to the lower abdomen. C'mon.

And your telling me all those years of constant punishment don't take there toll? The human body is a fickle thing and all boxers will be targeting Usyk's body even Aj did plus Usyk always complaining about aledged low blows. Watch mugabi v Hagler mugabi got hit lower multiple times never once complained till the ref deducted a point off Marvin, yeah Dubois was never going to win the one chance he might have had was denied boxing is not know as the most corrupt sport for nothing.

Daniel also had 4 minutes break and he still didn’t have gas to put it on usyk. So he wouldn’t have capitalised if he got up immediately

Disagree! That wasn’t low enough to be called an illegal shot. We have seen it so many times. When it’s the A-side, they don’t call it low.

Another excellent analysis.

His body didn’t react as regular punch to the body. There was no delay or winding.

Did the ref say to Usyk at the end "i'd have given you 6 mins if you needed it"? I may be totally wrong, but I thought Usyk went to the ref saying he didn't need the 5 mins and I thought (could be totally wrong) that someone and I presumed the ref said that.

Would love to know what these two think of Wards win against Kovalev when ward was hitting lower than Dubois.

Doesn't matter what they think. Ward won.

A low blow is defined by hitting below the belly button, any amount of mass goes below it then it counts as a low blow by technicality so yeah, it was a low blow

Everyone thinks usyk is weak to the body so we will see quite a few of these moments going forward. AJ hurt usyk in r9 (I think) with a big body shot, usyk went green. Dubois was going low and was aiming for the bit of the stomach that sticks out just above the waist. High shorts mean you can’t do that It was low

Wasn't low, but at least we'll see Fury dismantle another world champion .

From the BBBoC/Queensbury rules section 3.31 regarding low blows - ‘the “belt” is an imaginary line drawn across the body from the top of the hip bones’.

To me Usyks Trunks were high and watching the replay it looked like a clean shot. Usyk was hurt, he saw an opportunity when the referee called it low and took advantage of it. If the ref started counting he probably would have got up or at least tried. Dubois could have targeted the body more once he Saw how effective it was but instead he folded. The right man won.

He was wasted as the ref was signaling low blow. That shot put him down for over a minute. He would be awfully lucky to get up before the 10 count.

​@@mrillis9259Exactly how I see it.

If you want to see low blows go back and watch Ward vs Kov

What did the ref say would be considered low before the fight? Usually they say what will be considered low.

The problem was that the ref didn’t indicate before the fight where a low blow would or wouldn’t be when they have such big belt lines.

Cmon man that wasn’t a low blow, what are you guys smoking. Usyk was hurt he wasn’t gonna go up, he was finished, look at his facial expressions

I like how Teddy calls out the bs in boxing, but bless him, sometimes he does go round the houses to make a point.

Great interview, bit I paused it halfway to roll out a cot…

Unfortunately Boxing is picking up a bad name because of situations like these. Not every bout seems to be called on the line and fair and square but where there are disagreements there also should be an immediate rematch to settle these issues

Bolshavits, blow was legal & Usyk was very hurt. Usyk’s trunks were pulled up above his navel. Had the ref given Usyk a count, he would have got to his feet & possibly gone on to beat Dubois, but Dubois didn’t get a fair shake!

The position of the shorts or the belly button has nothing to do with whether its a low blow or not. Its the hip line which defines what is or is not a low blow and would have been pointed out by the ref to both boxers,. The only person that can judge it a low blow is the ref as he defined it pre fight in the changing room. Not my words, words of a world class ref.

IVE HEARD FIGHTERS SAY THAT THE BELT AND CUP CAN MOVE WHEN HIT ANYWHERE ON CUP

In soccer, it is being used sensor chips that show if the ball crosses the goal line. Place sensors under the belt and avoid misunderstandings. Evolution.

I agree, with Teddy, we're not in the locker room to hear the rules explained by the referee, as a result the fans only see and react to the call. Good reminder Teddy.

Hey, the nuts are not the only spot that a low blow / foul occurs and the low blow foul is not exclusively a rule to protect balls, nuts, or testicles. Teddy, you've been in this business a little while. The pain does NOT have to include or be limited to the balls. That area of the lower abdomen is vulnerable on every human torso and even most 4 legged animals. It was a low blow; hell, Dubois had even landed one punch to the right cheek of Usyk's ass in the prior round. That's a low blow too. Hmmm......I don't know, can a boxer legally punch an opponent on the upper inner thigh so long as the balls aren't touched? What about a really hard shot to the side of the knee with those 10 ounce gloves. A low blow is low.

So....when aj kept getting up and saying "im ready" when he fought ruiz...teddy said "he quit" But when usyk lays on the floor for 4 mins teddy says "he wudda just got up if the ref said get up" Wow it must be great to make up your own reality

Was not a low blow usyk behaved like a cowardly dog, the ref was beyond shady, then dubois quit again

The shot was dirty on the borderline so it's hard to tell if it's low or not. It might be 50/50 low and not low. But it definitely wasn't a great punch to liver or solar plexus. Don't hit dirty low and this is not going to happen simple

What he said about Povetkin v Huck was exactly what the ref was like in the Hatton v Mayweather fight.Cuntez kept pulling Hatton off to hinder his body attacks on Mayweather

If one gets a marker and draws a line from the belly button around a person's body and that is the border for which low or not low is defined, then this matter is very SUBJECTIVE. People's bodies are shaped differently and I bet: >Some boxing cups MAY cover the belly button and other will show it. >Furthermore, even if the cup doesn't cover the belly button, the shorts may cover the belly button. Someone get the rules book out from the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, ABC, XYZ, and XXX and shows us the written rules regarding this one.... I have yet to see a single referee say "your cup and/or shorts are covering your belly button so please adjust your cup and/or shorts so I can see your belly button." NEVER have I heard or seen a ref say this. Your thoughts .... ???

No the belt line has nothing to do with it, most of the glove must be below the hip line as the belt line could be high or even low, usyk is known to wear or high and that’s exactly why DDD’s trainer pointed it out to the ref before the fight

And another thing those Cups are not made perfect.The deflect the punch upwards with a uppcut.

So it needs to be a crystal clear ruling that anything below the belly button is considered low

I have always wondered why fighters never take the full 5min offered by the ref. No surprise that a smart fighter like usyk would take time! Low or not the blow given how one sided the whole fight was its hard to see Dubois being good enough to take advantage of even a body hurt usyk!

Shout out Dubois. Even when the whole world has forgot he’s still taking the knee at every opportunity he can get #BLM #Respect 😂

Teddy was doing some major waffling 😂😂😂

To say that the shot was blatantly low shows explicit bias!!!

Think what happened dubois shot was coming from below uppercut upwards and power of impact going upwards push protector upwards crushed usyk balls explains why he hit floor so quickly plus shaking arm on floor was low blow . Looks at legal body shots afterwards didn't hurt usyk at all plus usyk wasn't trying to protect his body went gung hour on dubois.

Gentlemen thank you for at least saying you know it’s a “ Low Blow “ !!! It’s a fact WOW .

Low when Joshua and Dubois hit that spot, but not low when Beterbiev and Medgidov hit him in the exact same spot 🤔 I just think he’s mush to the body
