Why wasn't Broner deducted points for kicking Paulie in the balls?

[New England]

Hey they wear cups so no big deal, its a fight! Broner should have looked better but he had to chase Paulie around all night! Theres a reason Paulie was on the move, he felt Broner and knew he had to get on the bike or get KO'd. A few kidney shots and rabbit punches never hurt anyone! HA! Ray

what do you think of broner?

i thought he looked like garbage last night myself, and don't like his prospects at 147. he may lose to matthysse @ 140 if they fight.

Not only did he kick Paulie in the nuts, but he also punched him during the break.

Lifting your leg is fine. Its the dramatic straightening of said leg and the reaction of everyone involved that lets you know how incidental the contact was.

Broner is like "But I iz with Haymon!!!" CMON IZ A HAYMON FIGHTA!!!"

Paulie goes to the corner and crouches down like "OWWW HE JUST KICKED ME IN THE NUTS!".

That says every everything you need to know.

lifting a leg is illegal in boxing, and the step preceding a takedown.

Kicking in the nuts, kidney punches, spinning uppercuts, back hands on breaks and i didnt even see 1 stern warning

Whats the point of a ref? He was clearly afraid to warn Broner

Even though I don't think he hurt Paulie with that kick, it was a blatant foul. When someone kicks or knees or a blatantly uses his elbow they should get an automatic deduction. There should be no warning, it not like a punch that stays down low. You can accidentally headbutt someone or hit them low, there is no accidentally kicking someone in boxing.

Esteves must be in uncle Al's pocket too. We know Haymon has some deep pockets.

It's rather disgusting that you're trying to justify the use of illegal blows just because it's a fight. Yeah, it is a fight, but there are still rules to be abided by. And yeah I know that subtle uses of elbows and the head on the inside have been used to soften opponents up throughout the history of the sport, but blatant rabbit punching, kidney punches and foot-swinging to the groin is not on.

Al Haymon probably had his family at gun point.

Paulie was not grabbing the leg like he was taking him down, he wasn't lifting it, he was just trying to hold on to something so he didn't go down from Broner pushing him down.

Thats right, innocent boy Broner PULLED PAULIE DOWN AND KICKED HIM IN HTE BALLS. Then hit him on the break....

[Regeza]

Point is Adrian Broner is a hype job. He could not do what Ricky, and Amir did years ago.

[ILLuminato]

There was one point when Broner tried to do the "it's protect yourself at all times" Mayweather move. Broner fouled Malignaggi and on the break Broner tried to run over with a left-hook right hand, while Malignaggi was not ready.
