Is it legal what PBF does with his elbows and forearm?

[flint]

Absolutely not

but Al Haymon and his fans will just call it "veteran tricks"

anything to try and help alvared win. but it won't work.

[JoeKidd]

Veteran tricks? Old school boxing? Until a Russian does it, then it's dirty. What irks me is that fighters are at a loss on how to retaliate. Where's Duran!

[illmaticfighter]

Yeah those guys u mentioned has done "jumping headbutts" before. Totally the same thing.

if ortiz isn't allowed to do a flying leg drop your bias for the brother man

[illmaticfighter]

its not legal, floyd gets away with it. cortez was a joke in that fight. but hey, its floyd mayweather, your not going to beat him unless you knock him out cold, and even then im sure they would find a way to give floyd the win!!!! viva al haymon.

funny the fight you guys say floyd lost in he was with bob arum, lol i guess we really know who will do anything to protect there cash cow.

If the refs don't see it and call him out for it, why should he stop?

Only time I can remember him getting penalized for the elbow was against Castillo.

The ref will make sure of that

[IronDanHamza]

One of those grey area's where it isn't legal but it's not outright illegal I.e low blows or headbutts.

Similar to holding in that sense.

Bending the rules and not "breaking" them, per se, is something that's been around forever and always will be. It's more of an "old school" tactic.

If you can get away with it then by all means continue. But if you're getting warned for it then continueing would be foolish on that fighters part.

Floyd should have been a thai boxer he likes the elbows so much.
The thing is Floyd uses it, it don't result in a ko, cos he cant punch. Tyson Fury used it once and his opponent was flat out for the count, meaning Cunning can use the excuse that he lost solely cos of the elbow.

man you still crying about something related to floyd. When does it ever end.

Since we are talking rules does anyone have a link to any officially accepted rules from any of the athletic commissions or sanctioning bodies? This is a hard argument to have without having an accepted set of rules as your starting point.
