Tyson Fury Says Oleksandr Usyk Lost To Daniel Dubois Due To Body Shot

Tyson Fury has slammed Oleksandr Usyk as he claimed Usyk lost to Daniel Dubois.

In the fifth round, Dubois landed a body shot to Usyk that dropped the champ. However, the ref ruled it as a low blow and the Usyk had a few minutes to recover.

On replay, some fans thought it was a clean shot, as did Tyson Fury who says Oleksandr Usyk quit and should have lost.

“I thought he lost [to Dubois] and he quit so he’s a little, quitting [coward],” Fury said to Sky Sports. “And once you quit once you’lll always quit, just like we saw with Dubois. He quit too, so that was two quitters fighting each other. It’s tough to say somebody’s quit but Usyk quit with a body shot and rattled around the floor like a little [coward] for five minutes and the other one quit with a jab. But the truth is the truth and that’s it.

“I thought [Usyk] was a warrior, I thought he was a true little fighting man. But he’s clearly not, he’s just a little wussy. I’ve been hit full-on, right [below the belt] with the hardest punches you’ve ever seen, I didn’t roll around like that. It is what it is, you’re a fighting man or you’re not and if you quit once, you will always quit again. My father told me that when I was a child. If you spew it once you’ll always spew it and that’s the facts of the matter. End of,” Fury concluded.

Ultimately, Usyk ended up getting a TKO win to defend his heavyweight belts, and the hope is he can face Tyson Fury next. However, Fury is booked to face Francis Ngannou in October.
