I have experienced your issue on track, but only with high RPM downshifts. High RPM downshifts under heavy braking generates compression drag in the engine which increases the chance of locking up the rear wheels and engaging ABS. Depending on what the ABS controller feels like it may reduce overall brake force to compensate.

So, save your downshifts for later in the braking. It doesn't sound as cool but the car will work better.
