«Robbery! Pure knockout of Usyk»: the boxing world makes noise after the victory of the Ukrainian

On Sunday night, Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk won his 21st victory at the professional level. In Wroclaw, Poland, the undefeated heavyweight finished off British Daniel Dubois and defended his titles for the second time according to the World Boxing Association (WBA Super), World Boxing Organization (WBO), International Boxing Federation (IBF) and International Boxing Organization (IBO). Ahead of Usyk's representatives are new negotiations with Tyson Fury about the fight for the title of absolute world champion.

At the same time, we might not have seen a technical knockout (TKO) in the ninth round. As well as the potential fight of the year — 2024 Usyk VS Fury would not be discussed now, if in the fifth three-minute period the judge interpreted the most difficult episode not in favor of the Ukrainian.

What happened closer to the middle of the 12-round confrontation? Dubois, who often worked on the body, powerfully punched from the right to the elastic band of the shorts. From such a blow, the Ukrainian collapsed onto the canvas and came to his senses for a long time. The referee at the moment with the fall of Usyk recorded a hit in the groin and decided to give Alexander the prescribed five minutes to recover. But many fans saw in this punch a legal blow that hit the legal area of ​​​​the body. Social networks immediately spread screenshots and repetitions of that moment with the condemnation of the judge for refusing to record the sensational victory of Dubois by TKO. br>

Logically, a point should have been deducted from the Briton for such a violation — no sanctions followed. id=456240799&hd=1″ width=»100%» height=»100%» allow=»autoplay; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture;» frameborder=»0″ allowfullscreen=»»>

Promoter representing the interests of the British, Frank Warren, said that an appeal would be filed against the result of the title meeting. Usyk reacted with surprise to the thesis. At a press conference, the Ukrainian showed the journalists the place where the opponent had hit. Wow, Usyk's shorts were high! Comedy… He lost, and now he's talking about my shorts. Yes, I can box without them at all! ”, Usyk explained to the media, not without irony.

Dubois was so disappointed that he even ignored the post-fight press conference. The Briton is convinced that the home preparation worked… And what happened on Saturday evening in Wroclaw was the height of injustice.

«

"I should be world champion… It's not fair. We don't have to live with these lies and deceit. Of course, I want revenge … I want to take revenge and achieve justice. We've been working in the gym for weeks on just that kick. It was supposed to be a knockout and I'm disappointed with that. It was not a blow to the groin: I felt how perfectly I delivered the blow to Usyk's stomach. I know for sure that it was a great blow, «quotes Dubois Boxing Scene. from the world of boxing. Among them is the famous Teddy Atlas, who called Usyk’s behavior after the missed blow “strange” on social networks. The coach did not forget to go through the experienced referee Luis Pabon (the Puerto Rican, by the way, worked on the superfight of Alexander Povetkin against Wladimir Klitschko in 2013):

«
«I should have said before the fight that this referee has done some 'dubious' things in the past. And maybe (he did it) again.»

Russian boxer Dmitry Kudryashov also did not find anything criminal in Dubois' smashing attack on the body (Sport24 quotes the Russian Sledgehammer): belt, and on the repeat it was clear that the blow was in the gum. Therefore, it is at the discretion of the judges: since such a decision was made, it means that Usyk decided the fight in his favor.

Promoter Oscar De La Hoya did not hide his annoyance well:

«
«It's just a robbery! A clean knockout (Usyk). Perhaps this guy had balls stuck to his navel before the fight, another explanation

But the star Derek Chisora, as well as coach Dubois Don Charles, in an interview with TalkSport urged to follow the example of football /tennis and introduce a video replay system in boxing.

«

"Do you know how to get through to the truth? Boxing needs a video assistant referee (VAR) system. Daniel lost, but things could have turned out differently. Plus, he lost money: Dubois could have won and made a rematch for 20-30 million pounds. So you need to introduce VAR — it already exists in football and tennis,» Chisora ​​shares his opinion. Champion promoter Alexander Krasyuk called his client's performance «absolute dominance». Former world boxing champion Tony Belew put it all on the shelves: «anything below the navel is classified as «below the waist» in boxing.»

Finally, another former world champion Liam Smithpointed in social networks to the fallacy of the arguments of fans who disagree with the outcome of the fight:

«< br>

«A low blow. And no matter how high the shorts were worn. In general, the Dubois team could require Usyk to lower the shorts before the fight if they didn't like something.»
