    Are There Any Fighters Who Don't Cheat?

    Terry Norris enjoyed punching fighters who were down and after the bell.

    Nigel Benn hit Barkley when he was down, like three times and landed many rabbit punches in the McClellan fight.

    Andre Ward clinched Kessler to no end in their fight.

    Wlad clinched and wrestled Povetkin to insane levels.

    Mayweather used elbows and pushing often.

    Trinidad would go below the belt often.

    Thomas Hearns held opponents' heads down on more than a few occasions.

    Chavez, Sr. landed his share of low blows.

    Barrera blatantly hit Morales with rabbit punches.

    Duran kneed Buchanan below the belt.

    Hopkins landed plenty of head butts that were intentional.

    Holyfield was the head butt king.

    Tyson loved to nibble on an ear or two.

    I have heard Ali had the ropes loosened for his fight with Foreman.

    Foreman himself pushed a lot.

    A sport of cheaters!! Haha

    There probably isn't. When you're in a fight it's life and death so it's pretty hard to stop and think about if you might be cheating when an opportunity presents itself to get an advantage. Every fighter has "cheated" in some way before.

      That's what I am gathering. I guess the main complaints should be toward those who cheat over and over and blatantly. And of course, the referees if they fail to call them out.
