Eddie Hearn accused the British boxer of simulation during the title fight with the Ukrainian.
Daniel Dubois pretends to fight Oleksandr Usyk. This opinion was expressed by the famous promoter Eddie Hearn.
According to the functionary, the British boxer deliberately refused to continue the fight with the WBA, WBO and IBF world champion, although he could have done so.
“He didn’t get up because he didn’t want to. Dubois himself counted nine in the first knockdown and then got up. There was no real punch in that exchange. He was on his knees and looking at the referee.
Dubois waited for the referee to count to ten before standing. If you keep fighting, you don’t have to wait. Gotta get up. Daniel knew what he was doing. He doesn’t have a concussion. He was not stunned. Dubois has done it twice in his career,” Hearn mentioned via Boxing News 24/7.
It will be remembered that Usyk defeated Dubois by TKO in the ninth round.
Earlier, the ex-world champion said why Dubois refused to fight Usyk.
