Warren said that the complaint was finalized in accordance with all the rules, after its consideration, hearings will be held. “I would like them to make the right decision, I hope they call for a rematch. To be realistic, I don’t think they will annul the result of the fight. He deserves a rematch,” he said, adding that there are many photos and videos that show the place of impact and the reaction of the referee.
On August 27, Usyk defeated Dubois. The referee recorded the victory of the Ukrainian by technical knockout in the ninth round.
