Can You Bi*chslap A Boxer?

You'd get a warning from the ref.

I'm asking for a reason. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it isn't technically allowed. Every time a boxer does it they get warned by the ref.

Honest question - Are you allowed in the ring to backhand someone with your boxing gloves instead of just punching them? I don't know if I've ever seen anyone do it... i dont think its allowed. Hamed tried that **** and got warned for it.

seems like a great way to get ktfo by a counter there's no slower weaker motion you can perform with your arm It could prove to be pretty effective if it was a spinning backhand, though...

No, but you're allowed to pound a boxer on top of his head. See Maidana vs Mayweather

A back hand blow is absolutely illegal in boxing. All boxers know this and don't throw a back hand blow anymore than they would throw a kick or and elbow or a head butt. The referee would give you one or possibly two warnings and then start taking points away.

You have to understand, my man. Most of these guys on this forum got into boxing like two years ago. To answer the question, no, we dont do backhands in boxing. Lol I started watching boxing when i was a month old and started to box myself at 2 months old. These cats just don't even know brah.

Backhand is totally illegal. If you watch boxing and someone inadvertently tries to do it, the ref steps right in to stop it.

its not allowed lmfao, its not my opinion its in the rules. You do see boxers do it from time to time and the ref warn them against it. You have to understand, my man. Most of these guys on this forum got into boxing like two years ago. To answer the question, no, we dont do backhands in boxing. Lol

watch fury v chisora 2 whenever fury goes southpaw, he's constantly slapping that jab out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9EyFu8ZU84 it just looks lazy to be honest, theres no way a 'b1tchslap' will be as effective as a ramrod jab thrown properly, but it's likely a bit strange to defend against, as its coming from the angle of a backhand, it could be followed up quite effectively by a backhand to the body

you cannot backhand someone in the ring. Watch boxing Much? I'm asking for a reason. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it isn't technically allowed.

Seen carl froch do it and be warned by the ref Maybe even prince naseem?

ive heard refs tell a guy not to do it which makes no sense. the glove hits the face. thats the concept of boxing. I think it's considered unsportsmanlike due to old rules (bareknuckle?) or something like that. Boxers still do it though, mostly when they "flick" their jabs. Haven't seen anyone do it with power, more like a distraction technique.

I tried to do this a few times when I boxed, and the ref always said it was illegal

ITs weird, in boxing you should be allowed to use your fists anyway you wish, they should allow back hands and spinning back fists to be honest. It will make the fight more exciting and intriguing.

Honest question - Are you allowed in the ring to backhand someone with your boxing gloves instead of just punching them? I don't know if I've ever seen anyone do it... It's against the rules in amateurs but I think it's technically legal in the pros. I wouldn't do it because you don't have the power beheind the backhand as you would with a well turned punch and if he rolls that hand he could counter you badly to the chin or body and drop you. Guys like Mayorga though, wouldn't put it past them to pull that off. I think i've seen a backhand or something similar in some old school boxing footage but can't remember the fight.
