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".
Usyk: Let's go, don't push the horses.
Charles: Pardon me?
Usyk: Don't push the horses.

Horse

This is a four legged ball of love that constantly needs cuddles and a special mixture of oats, hay, and a bit of water. They can connect with humans through the mind and become one. Nobody can take these beauties down! They are often floofy and lazy. They can also be energetic and non-floofy. If you see a horse either pet it, or don't because sometimes they will bit your arm off... oh well!
Do you see that horse in the field?

My cousin Janet had a horse once, you can tell because she only has one arm.
