      if you duck your head down and leave it there you can be stopped. this does happen. it's just not professional to keep your head ducked down like that. you can't even seen your opponent if you keep your head there. turning your head away is what somebody does when they spar before they're ready.

        Just cause you post examples if people breaking the rules doesn't make it legal.
        I can videos of people clinching excessively, would that make it legal?

        I can show videos of fighters landing low blows would that make it legal?

        I can show you videos of people running red lights , would that make it legal?

        Just cause I ref fails to do his job doesn't mean it isn't an illegal move.

            I can't tell if a punch landed or not but if it did, it should had been ruled a KD since the ropes helped him stay up. Im talking about @1:30. And Im pretty sure a right landed there too.

            PS Sweet Pea is who Floyd wishes he was.

                Not sure what you want people to say...because everyone is doing it, its not illegal?

                For the record I don't know if it is or isn't and dint care one way or the other.

                    Lately you've been throwing around a lot of ignorant shit without even backing it up. Why does a fighter who at this point may arguably have the better resume, is more financially settled, clean; didn't fall into drug habits...want to be Whitaker?

                    Or do you mean skill wise? Even then that's an ignorant statement because Mayweather was equally as well rounded as Whitaker, and he certainly didn't showboat in very close fights either which might be the only thing I'd knock about Whitaker's game.

                      I knew they had rules in the amateurs but did not know they had this rule in the pros. If they did, what if a 5'6" fighter was facing a 6'2" fighter? He would not be allowed to duck at all?
