    Doesn't mean that he isn't doing better than Joshua, who did nothing.

    That was a good body shot, not low.

    Didn't look that low to me. Bit of gamesmanship going on there.

    Usyk wincing at every body shot but Dubois too scared to throw them because of the counters. 

    He had a chance and he's just not thrown enough to take advantage.

    There arent many better inside fighters to the body than Fury in this division, i think he may be a bit more confident after watching this

    Dubois too tired to defend it seems. And took a knee over a jab.

    Referee earned his money tonight for sure though and a little bonus too.

    I think that it was tiredness. Other than the Joyce fight he has never gone beyond 5 rounds.

    That is a robbery no?! Usyk wasn't getting up after that body shot

    Ref has been conned there. That was never low. Dubois has been robbed. Ref was buying the complaints from Usyk's corner all the way through.

    Far too big for Usyk and doesn't give him an easy time like others have done. Smothers him and hits him from every angle, especially now he has seen how vulnerable he is to the body shot..

    Dubois should be world champion now and Usyk got lucky with that moment. 

    However, Dubois could easily have made that count and although I get he was tired,  I’m never sure of boxers who don’t go out on their sword, particularly in a world title fight.

    He did but question marks over his heart after he flat-out quit in the last round though.

    I can’t question someone that should have won but didn’t cos moody decision and arguably shouldn’t even been at that level in the first place.

    He is only 25 and isn't yet conditioned to 12 rounds of championship boxing. That's down to his management.

    Did the same against Joyce, albeit with an injury.

    Dubois' corner losing their minds, but your fighter didn't take advantage and then quit on his knee

    Frank Warren  talking about things being above board?? No self awareness 😂

    Have to say I agree with Frank Warren and the Dubois corner. I'd be seriously pissed off if I was them. Never in a million years is that low. Usyk trying to claim that he was hit in the bollocks! Absolute nonsense.
