Oleksandr Usyk v Daniel Dubois

[Master]

Promoter Frank Warren has lost an appeal to the WBA for Daniel Dubois' loss to Oleksandr Usyk to be ruled a no contest and that a rematch be ordered.

The WBA said there was not enough evidence to change the result.

The orgainsation added that it sent the case to the International Officials Committee, who found "no clear and conclusive evidence that the original decision made by Puerto Rican official Luis Pabon on Dubois' punch to Usyk was wrong".

The WBA reviewed documents submitted by Warren's Queensberry Promotions, replays and rules before determining that the appeal would not proceed.

For once I agree with the WBA, usually I don't, we use to call a fight which go to the score cards, robbery, when the perdant won without a doubt at least 7 rounds; well I think we can apply the same rule here : it was Dubois punch without a doubt legal ? I don't think so, even after watch a lot of replays I can t say , yes it was 100% a legal punch.
