Tony Belew believes that his countryman really attacked the world champion against the rules.
Oleksandr Usyk beat Daniel Dubois soundly, and the Briton really delivered a forbidden blow to the Ukrainian. This is what the former rival of the world champion, Tony Bellew, said.
According to the famous boxer, his compatriot hit Usyk below the navel, and this was prohibited by the rules.
“Anything below the navel is considered a low blow in boxing. It’s not my opinion, it’s a FACT! Those are the rules! Your shorts shouldn’t cover your navel, but if they do, then you can hit there! This photo says a thousand words,” wrote Belew.
Anything below navy is classified as low in boxing! That is not my opinion that is FACT! That’s the rules! Your shorts should not cover the naval cos if they do the belt can get hit! This picture says a thousand words! Throw it up once and you’ll throw it up again is also a fact! pic.twitter.com/JDdfJxdGrE
