    Usyk is so good, p4p he is right up there, that said the size discrepancy between him and Fury is too much to overcome, they look like they're in different weight classes.

    Genuine question....what's classed as a low blow?
    Can't be just the shorts, you could just pull them higher up.

    So is the belly button the low blow threshold?

    Yeah. Anything that hits below the naval is an illegal shot. For me there is clear evidence to show part of the glove is below that point.

    Yeah this is a good angle and view of it. It definitely seems to hit the protector / top of cup. It also looked like a ball shot and not a body shot by his body and the traction. Arm shaking etc.

    Waste of time appealing for me, biggest issue is dubios quitting AGAIN, warren delivers title shots for his fighters but it’s always too soon, yarde with kovalev granted he almost pulled that off and last night neither were ready

    Dubois has the quit in him. 100% can see it in his nature. Size of the man, doesn't seem to have that dog in him.

    Few times he looked for the floor last night, think he might become a gatekeeper for the top table

    Fury fan boys are raging but it was low.

    The amount of people who think it was a perfect shot is staggering. It does’t matter if he pulled his shorts down after the fight, it was still below his belly button and therefore illegal.

    Arguments still going on about the shot in the boxing gym I am part of. Some adamant it was low, some saying the still shots are deceptive going round. They are as well, the actual contact was higher than some of the stills I have seen. I think it was close, but low. Usyk doesnt go down if it is a solid shot above the line for me.

    All said above though I think Usyk got too long to recover personally. He got a champions respect. Other way round Dubois gets 3 mins tops. Overall Usyk was off his own standards I thought, was open to the body shot too often and seemed a bit too keen to get the fight over after the 5th. Lost a bit of his cool.

    Dubois not really at the level to fight him. I would take Joyce to give him his toughest fight yet. Joyce throws a lot of shots per round and is a clever mover. He would be trouble for Usyk.

    5 mins is the rule though isn't it ? Allowed to take 5 mins.

    I mean the glove or part of his below the naval therefore it's illegal.

    Joyce is too slow I think. Fury wipes him out though.
