Joe Cortes commented on the annoying episode with a low blow in the title fight with Dubois.
The referee of the duel Usyk – Dubois should have acted differently in the scandalous episode of the duel Usyk – Dubois. This is what legendary former referee Joe Cortez said.
A member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame said that the Ukrainian boxer should not have rested too much after a dirty blow from the British.
“I don’t know what happened on Saturday with Usyk, but in my opinion, after this blow right through the belt, he shouldn’t have been given a long time. I would have given a warning and let the fight be extended. But No I would have given him five minutes after that blow, I guess I didn’t mean it.
If it’s intentional, you’ll automatically start deducting points. Luis Pabon is a great referee. Maybe because of the language barrier, he didn’t explain to them exactly what was wrong with the low blow,” Cortes said in an interview on Fight Hub TV’s YouTube channel.
We remind you, earlier the WBA made a decision regarding the result of the Usyk – Dubois fight.
