    Something has to be done because fighters can't haymakers others in the back of the head like that. He hit him with rabbit punches all fight but in that round be really rocked him in the back of the head. Slugged him bro. That can't be a tactic that's ever be used because our sport will go done the drain. In this game, they're fighters who will use it to win if they can get away with it without being punished.

      Huh? Are you saying it is banned (I've never heard that) or that it should be banned? Its kinda a ****ty move in a sport where people actually do die without question, but I don't think it should be banned. Idk who could even ban it with how boxing works these days with all these indians running around trying to be chiefs. Commissions, promoters, alphabet groups, HBO/PBC?

        I don't think it should be banned in boxing. In fact, Castillo did it as a gesture to Rick Hatton while they touched gloves (only to get knocked out himself). However, at minimum the ref should have taken control and advised him to stop it. Refs have in the past told boxers to stop "trash talking."

        The NBA did ban it after many players did it. If you did you got a suspension. The NFL will classify it as "unsportsmanlike conduct" and result in a penalty for taunting.

        The most important thing is just that Colon makes a full recovery and boxing can do a better job in controlling the action.
