If you look closely, frame by frame, it actually landed directly below the belt and since he was swinging upward, it made it look like the punch landed on belt, however if you look closer the bottom of his glove is still touching below the belt line therefore a low blow. Can anyone argue this please?
Part of the punch landed below the belt and part of it was on the belt line. The punch actually lifted up Usyk's trunks from the bottom, which means that the punch made contact with fabric below the beltline, which means that it was a low blow. Also, if that is not enough proof, pause the video at 0:07 and have a look at the still frame. Half of Daniel Dubois' glove is below the belt line when it lands. This was a low blow.
Its clearly a low blow, forget where his shorts are, the punch clearly comes from under and lands below the belly button. Its below the waistline. People who say its on the shorts, look closely as it lands from below
It has to be "on" the belt to be legal, not just "touching" the belt from below. From 0:07 to 0:08, between the time the glove moves into Usyk's body and the time it starts to move away, there is always a knuckle or more below the belt. Low blow -- otherwise you could hit below with 3 knuckles, and claim it's legal because 1 knuckle was on the belt.
@@marrami2059 The belt line is arbitrary, because you could have your trunks pulled up to your chest like Fury vs. Usyk. What counts is whether it strayed below the navel, which it clearly did.
Part of his glove on the bottom clearly touched below the belt line. Obviously a low blow! Goes to show how many casuals really are in boxing. Probably blind too cause bruh it's on video!
@timtan2023hiyffg his thumb was on the black circle and the rest was below the belt touching the trunks if the glove is touching the trunks he's below the belt it's not rocket science ffs triple knee could have tickled usyks balls and you would still call it legal 🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣
@timtan2023hiyffg Stop talking rubbish. It was low, the ref called it, Dubious was finished with a jab. No quitter deserves to be a world champion. He lost, get over it. And get your eyes tested.
part of his glove or the bottom of his glove clearly touched below the belt line. Any part of the glove cannot touch below the belt otherwise it will be considered a low blow as shown in the video. Stop basing the punch off of normal speed. Look closely frame by frame and keep pausing til he landed! It look like it was on the belt because he was punch upward at a fast speed. Where the punch actually landed if you watch it frame by frame is clearly below the belt line.
People keep saying robbery or clearly low blow. It is "clearly" controversial, as we can see. But to say it is robbery is to deny the live action onf a fight. The referee is there for a reason, he has to take decisions on the spot, not with a slow mo youtube analysis. One can say Usyk was "robbed" in his first fight against Fury and won that anyway
punches must not be struck below the opponent's navel, usyk is wearing his shorts high and you can’t even see his belly button. I don’t believe it was below, Dubois was robbed. Hope he gets that rematch now
The initial contact looks low as usyks shorts start to move upwards before the full strike connected. The final strike id say is debatable. Im split 50/50 at the final contact. But as any man can testify...a light draft on the balls is enough to cause a nuclear war. End of 🤣
After seriously doubting, I still think this was a low blow. His navel is probably right below the belt and it seems Dubois's punch lands somewhere on Usyk's bladder, I wouldn't want to get hit by a heavyweight right on the bladder. Brrrrrr. Also Usyk's reaction was one of immediate pain and not the delayed reaction of a bodyshot. He also got clipped to the body a few times later in the fight and it seems he was fine then. I think low.
not even as high as Dubois. Have you EVER seen someone get hit center on the abs and gone straight down? No, it doesn't happen, and not to someone like Usyk who is in impeccable shape.
You’re crazy lol You can see Usyk’s yellow cup through his shorts, and Dubois’ glove landing right on it. Also, go watch the fight, and turn the audio up, you can literally hear the plastic crunch of glove hitting cup. It’s brutal.
it is not super low but still low i would say, from what i see it makes impact where DDD knuckles are and that is low, not super low but low enough to be deemed a low blow and the majority of DDD fist is definitely under usyk naval, no way is usyk nave down to his hips, it is most lilky not fare from the belt line as usyk demonstrated after the fight, and usyk is man of honor so when he say something it holds weight in my view, not that i always agree but it holds weight
That was clearly an illegal blow. Usyk was born with navel balls. When he was born, the midwife was about to cut what she thought was the umbilical cord. A doctor rushed in and said, "Don't cut that. Those are his testicles." Lol
@meisteremmno it isn't, anything below the belt is considered.. this wasn't below the belt line but on the belt line ,legal bodyshot..usyk just can't take bodyshots. He also made out he was hit low against AJ in the rematch and against Beterbiev in the amateurs
@kingdaleclarke it's if the majority of the glove lands below the hip line which is below the navel, that's why people keep referencing the belly button you can't use the belt line as a rule because boxers wear their shorts at different levels ie low or hiked up
You casuals.... Stop saying below the belt.... Every fighter wears their trunks at different levels... Some wear so low you can see the belly button, others like Tyson fury wear them extreamly high.... You can't possibly Bly use the belt as a reference, it's below the belly button is illegal.
@@blender995no it isn't.. its on the belt line ,many referees say on the belt is fine but nothing below the belt meaning this was or should have been legal
@@blender995blind you mate, below the belly button is illegal, you can clearly see the belly button an the punch is a little above the belly button which makes it legal
That's not what they mean when they say "beltline"... Your beltline is from your belly button to the top of your hip bone, so like 1 or 2 inches usually. Not the entire width of his belt. This is unquestionably a low blow. You can even see the top of Usyk's cup get hit. He's a good 4-6 inches below the beltline.
Yeah blind people are watching a video and then typing about it. He got punched in the belly button and got lucky with the call. Idk why that’s so hard for people to accept. He went on to get the KO which is impressive
Love all the fan boys lying to themselves and trying to live with the fact you realize your fan guy is more important than your honor. THAT WAS ON THE BELT Usyk been dropped before same shot ...once he beta monster to tap his gut he's done.
A low blow is, any time the majority of the glove is below that hip 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.
We have a tendancy to look at the finger end of the glove as humans but if you look at where the knuckles of the glove land you can easily notice that ….. ive no idea everyone was shoutin lets be happy now 😊
You do know that intestines are situated below the belly button? A rupture there can kill a human. A punch or worse, a kick with toes, pose a lethal threat. Still, there is another less potential, still potential, area of attack that is ALLOWED. You know? Solar Plexus. Also in MMA with smaller gloves, you are at risk with hard blows to the temple, ANOTHER potential lethal anatomical area of the hulan body. Yep, fighting is risky business.
@@bmorkidkyrie7372 justthe beltline? really? it didnt graze the protective cap or below the beltline first? Did all the gloves only landed on the beltline?
Border line call it was right on the belt and was probably destined to go a few inches higher had Dubois not caught a forearm across the face. If Usyk was indeed fouled. It was because of the foul he committed as the punch was thrown.
@@awabbelghith2885Yeah move 1 to 2 frames forward and that’s the actual point of force impact. 100% on the belt. Impact was right on the line of the pelvic bone. Last time I checked that’s a legal shot.
If we're saying, which I think they were, that the belt was low then yes obviously it was but in actuality was it really, no I don't think so. U can clearly see his navel is covered and it hit him around the navel area, the lower abdomen, for me that is legitimate, nowhere near the genitals or nether regions
when usyk tried to stretch his body when the ref gave him a break, his belly button was actually exposed. So clearly his shorts wasnt that high as people are saying. The trajectory of the punch came from below then upwards. It looked like it grazed the protective cap before it landed fully on the belt. Some parts of the gloves landed on the beltline but some parts landed below the beltline. it was definitely a lowblow.

No normal punch should lift your shorts up revealing your underwear
@brucesharpe2843 Exactly.
And if you draw a line from Usyk's hip to where the punch lands, part of the punch is clearly below that line.
Part of the punch landed below the belt and part of it was on the belt line.

This was a low blow.
If you view is slow playback mode it appears contact is made below naval, his punch moves up to naval belt area. Probably lowblow.
Its clearly a low blow, forget where his shorts are, the punch clearly comes from under and lands below the belly button. Its below the waistline. People who say its on the shorts, look closely as it lands from below
How? He must have a strange body. That's on the belt. Look

High shot for a lowblow but still a low blow you can see it hit the top of the cup unintentional probably because dubois was also eating a forearm
