don't push the horses
During their rematch on July 19, 2025, Usyk told Dubois' team, "Don’t push the horses."
He directly translated it from Ukrainian, which is incorrect and makes almost no sense, but it's an euphemism for "Calm down," or "Don’t rush things."
He meant they were getting too confident or trying to act like they'd already won - and he was telling them to chill.
The English version of "Don't push the horses" would be something like "Hold your horses".
