Oleksandr Usyk wraps Ukraine’s flag around himself and his fists around Daniel Dubois | Boxing

Perhaps the most striking part of the controlled anger fluctuation that ended this heavyweight battle was not left or right or left left to the middle of the fifth round.

It was the smile of Oleksandr Usyk before the second of these shots. While allowing the Dubois arms to fall, freezing, uploading, engagement and a completely extended left hand, the legs that make Dubois crumple, the father, the Stan, a more wheezing or gum rod or gum rod towards the side of the jaw folded under him.

This was always a great opportunity for both warriors. For Dubois, in front of 90,000 people, it was the chance to do something unprecedented by combining heavyweight belts on the British soil. It was another opportunity to claim its own size for USYK, to walk with three arches and to leave with four, and at the same time representing Ukraine during a war.

USYK is now the unquestionable heavy world champion. The most surprising thing that these fights find with each of them is the new will depths of the venom, control and finish. Perhaps the best thing here is that Dubois carries out his own gameplan, seems sharp, a few bullets and at least not preserved, and to leave all of them behind. Switching with USYK at this level should feel like being beaten from your feet when you match triple control at the same time, throwing into Cluedo and losing a Dominos game.

Finally, USYK said, “I want to rest.” He wanted to rest or needed someone, he really understood what really happened. Tyson Fury talked about Derek Chisora and Anthony Joshua. Do it all one night, Oleeks. In different ways. With a different strike and perhaps only one toilet break.

This was another night when the Riyadh season came to Wembley. There is a kind of festival atmosphere here at night, the field has turned into a series of regions and stages, Gangways. The crowd was starred in plush seats. Here Jake Paul is making a sign of peace. Here’s Jason Statham in sunglasses. The familiar royal influencers, the Oddballs, show faces, carriers, Shakers, Mr. Fix-ITs, Mr. Pay-ITS were closer to the ring.

As the main activity approached, Wembley had a wide, humid, tropical hut seized with a constantly growing event Glamor and the title-flash area. On Saturday night, a mixture and a mass celebration, sweet Caroline, the pints in the air and all of these were involved in the old problems, Famer rise, war flags, 200 million dollars of bags, Saudi project staging.

Michael Buffer emerged as heavy tuxedus to make the Crier Law. Nadya Dorofeeva, a kind of Ukrainian Cheryl Cole, said a very effective champion anthem. The king rescue king took the full Singalong treatment. Wembley looked alive in a magnificent way, the light show, Dubois went to flames and fireworks, dressed in a sharp black t -shirt, dressed in a sharp black t -shirt, dressed in the skirts of the layer and bending shoulders to reveal the width of his neck.

Dubois shook a fist and seemed focused. However, there will always be a fundamental imbalance in the energy fields around these two fighters. Usyk is a single reason. It is a living standard of war, a living embodiment of the nation’s challenge for Russian invasion. No boxer did not represent his country to this degree, a bloody invasion poured into the flag while continuing in real time. Is an extraordinary state of existence.

What does Dubois represent? How does this confront this one -man war instrument? What is his narrative? Even the Tyson Fury managed to make up a kind of base, a follow-up, mental-house activism, deep male, iron john, forest man vibrations. Dubois can’t be a bad guy. He’s a good man. Actually, a single project is a single trader. It represents hard work, clean life and father control. It represents the ability to make five thousand pressure.

USYK cheered from the crowd of house and Ukrainian followers. In fact, he doesn’t need music and storytelling. Only in the midst of all this noise, in a cold, still center, it must exist with a beautiful feeling of threat as it moves. In the weighing in Dubois, his neck muscles caught fire like a giant salamander. Usyk stood there, 16 lb lighter in the jewels, all heritage, existence, certainty.

Dubois started as promised, taking the center of the ring, working behind his jab, followed a little more. It was an equal start and exciting degree of both men. Dubois was working hard, making usyk think. This is always a high -wire action. USYK learns you when standing, coding your movements, building its own set of patterns.

Dubois Challenger brought work rate and destructive aggression. But at the same time, a warrior’s energy, USYK absorbed it and a sense of passing to a more dangerous area than ever. Dubois slowed down in five rounds. It was surrounded by clockwise, selected with combinations.

USYK is a small heavy weight compared to modern super -dimensional standards (exactly the same dimensions, height and weight with Muhammad Ali), but the error is to see it as a disadvantage contrary to its speed, agility, astonishing power, contrary to the definition of superpower. Here, the infertility of a truly notable small real championship feeling was really noticeable.

Dubois deserves the loan because he is willing to fight everyone in front of him. There is some kind of freedom in this. The defeat here will still leave the upper layer, other roads will return to this level. In the meantime, USYK remains in its own different field, a man who can be adapted forever, physically unspoiled, fighting a kind of light around it.
