Should A Lowblow Be Grounds For An Immediate DQ?

[Run]

If that were the case Nard would have been disqualified about thirty something times, and he would have been expelled from boxing when he fought Keith Holmes. Nobody attacked the groin like he did/does.

I don't know but I might have counted 100 deliberate low blows.

i thought therre should have been more points deducted in Cotto.Judah.

[Feint]

No. But I do think after one warning the next violation should automatically result in points being deducted.

[adamk1304]

no, i don't see why there's so much fuss about the judah cotto fight, the first "low blow" was a bodyshot and this could clearly be seen from the replay, Even the commentators were puzzled and asking why zab would act like such a ***** whilst on the offensive. Cotto deserved the point deduction for the second low blow.

NO...... The odd Foul is part of boxing.. If there is an obvious attempt to injure.. i.e. Tyson Biting Holyfeild or Trying to break That Big irish ****ers arm(cant think of his name) then OK... But a Little rough-housing, intentional or not.. Is a Good stratagey.. Against certain fighters

For sure Welter it's part of boxing. Even though low blows and certain fouls shouldn't be done there are times when maybe it comes in handy. Because in the Cotto/Judah fight if Cotto was really hurt the first low blow was a good strategic move to get his senses back and recover even if some people felt it was wrong.

[porlie]

No it shouldnt cos it can happen accidentally.

I think it should depend on the fight. I mean, if a fighter is notorious for such offenses then yes, he should be dq'd or, if it is blantant and apparant that it was done on purpose.

But, I think like someone said then all fighters would claim accidental even if it were on purpose.

I do think Cotto deserved to have more than just one point deducted for the second low blow because watching, there was nothing accidenatl about it. IMO.

Absurd!

This would be like a construction worker wearing steel toe boots to complain/biatch and moan and hop around on one foot after dropping his 20 ounce framing hammer on his foot. Talking about I can't work no more or this is going to slow me down for what ever reason he might come up with.

Absurd!

I repeat.

Johny Knoxville was hit 6 times with a large sledge hammer while wearing a protective cup. Filming did not stop. The stunts did not stop. He laughed through the entire ordeal.
