It all began calmly, with a kind of intelligence of the situation. But already in the second round, Usyk confidently stated that he was going to fight until victory. The next round brought Alexander a furious ovation of the public: he had a successful two. But Daniel was not behind, and so far the fight was smooth.

In the fourth round, Usyk continued to dodge all the blows of the Englishman. And he still tried to put the enemy on the shoulder blades. In the next round, Daniel made a mistake. He hit the Ukrainian in the groin, which grossly violated the rules of battle.

In the eighth round, the Ukrainian put the Englishman on his knee. Daniel did not keep up with the pace of the opponent and looked unimportant. And in the ninth round, he fell again. The judges announced a technical knockout and Usyk's win. When it became known that Alexander won again, he arranged a real disco with dancing in the ring. There was a standing ovation in the hall.

The significance of winning the ring for both Usyk and Dubois was the 21st fight of his professional career. Daniel first boxed for the title of world champion. Alexander defended his title for the second time. And he managed to do it a hundredfold.

I must say that not everyone expected the victory of the Mustache. Many people bet on Dubois because everyone knows the power of his punch. But Alexander himself did not feel it. Except that it hurt at the moment when the blow fell on the groin.

If you’ve watched the fight, what point of view do you have? This was Daniel’s second defeat in his professional career. And he's not going to put up with the judges' results.



Instagram / @usykaa Usyk's next potential fight could go against Tyson Fury According to the boxer, he is ready to enter the ring. I wonder how Daniel Dubois’ story will end. Anyway, Usyk is not going to give the back either. He is ready to fight for his world title until the end.
