Losing the mouthpiece at key moments

[mic573]

It's never ok to spit out the mouthpiece on purpose. It pissed me off when Frietas did it against Corrales and Barrios. It pissed me off when Corrales did it against Castillo as well.

I think it's fine to do it as long as the referee penalizes you after the third time you do it like he did Freitas. If you don't support it, then don't support Trinidad's low blows or anybody clinching when they're about to be KO'ed. Y'all are a bunch of hypocrites.

tying up another fighter and ditching your mouth piece are different. low blows are also cheap.

Boxing is there for boxer's to do exactly that - Box.

They arent there to cheat.

My rule of thumb:

If you spit out your mouthpiece in one of the best fights I've seen in my life then that's good.

If you spit out you mouthpiece and then quit later in the fight that's bad

You didn't just compare clinching to spitting out your mouthpiece did you? Oh sweet lord you did. If Chico would have clinched, and then recovered, and knocked him out, noone would care. Just for that fact alone it is uncomparable to spitting the mouth piece. Also you don't get penalized for clinching, just excessive clinching. Clinching itself isn't illegal, it is part of boxing. Spitting out the mouth piece is like laying down and saying WAIT TIMEOUT IM HURT which is not what I expect from a fighter.

Although I'm not condoning what Castillo did, Chico did CHOOSE to fight him. In doing so it gave away any excuse if he lost in my eyes, Castillo didn't say oh yeah during this fight go ahead and throw out your mouth piece. Also curious, what were the actual weights at fight time again? Well theres my 2 cents on this issue, and I think I did a good job finishing this issue off. Your welcome.

Mike Tyson is a real man! Buster knock Tyson's mouthpiece right out of his mouth and what tyson do, before trying to get up he was looking for his mouthpiece and put it in.(all hanging out but it was in lol)i dont care if corrales took the mouthpiece out cause he was penalized for it. o well hat goes around come around now ppl are saying castillo cheated cuz of the wieght
