    Such nonsense...

    ouching gloves has nothing to do with 'good sportsmanship", fighting within the rules does. Hell, You can foul and touch gloves all night, does that make you a good sport? I've seen guys GET fouled and reach out to touch, how ****** is tthat? That crap starts in the gym, I told my guys don't touch gloves 'til the sparring is over and I'd tell the other coach ahead of time, we don't touch 'til the end and they normally say, "no problem". It's as annoying as seeing a guy shoot a free throw and has to touch all his teamates' hand before shooting again, for WHAT? The ref says touch gloves and come out fighting, not, touch gloves and come out and touch gloves. I told my guys during a fight, except for the last rd. "if the guy reaches to touch, try to take his damn head off".

      I just talked to Queen Leia on the phone and she's down with it. She wants the glove tapping eliminated, and....the fighters to touch "other" body parts.

        I only like seeing it in the last and final round especially if it was a good fight. Other than that I don't like seeing it.
