The OP is an idiot. I usually read dumb opinions and I don't declare that but the OP is just a straight up idiot. Anyone that has any sort of rational or thinking would know why this is extremely stupid.

I've been thinking about this all night, i couldn't sleep, sorry if this has been posted before

I've been working on compiling everyone's response in emails 2 the wbc, wbo, wba, ibf and many of the smaller organizations, but I have 1 more q I wanted 2 run by you guys

ive seen a lot of complaints about how fouls have negatively effected the outcome of a fight - see abner mares-africbeko; cotto-judah low blows, sam peters rabbit punnching

and generally I think if the ref catches it - sure it's a good thing2 deduct a point, works fine right?

BUT
I think we've seen in some particularly instances where dirty fouls have completely changed the course of a fight and made it unfair - and it seems even deducting poiints is not enough

So what I propose and will propsoe 2 the organizations in email later today is the 2 begin the debate (obviously not implement) the concept of "free shots"

In hockey if U make a foul U get a penalty shot - 1 free shot against the goalie - nobody complaints about that?

basketball u get free throws - who complains about that?

football u get 2 touchdown tries but u don't see anyone bitching about that

why is boxing different? why not - after a particularly dirty foul - why not consider a scenario where if U are fouled against, the ref stops the action & u get 1 free punch at your opponent & the opponent can't defend

Now I believe this wuld add a great deal of excitement and would clean up the sport at the same time - it would also add strategy because if you are about 2 get punched bc u made a penalty u could also possibly have the ability 2 duck OR bend back n counter

1 thing that I'm not sure of is whether the ref would hold the foulee's hands behand their back during the free shot but I'm still figuring it out

please contribute 2 this thread w/ your thoughts - i am not defensive or married 2 this idea - just want to hear any opinions, whether u support t or just agree with it

thnx 4 your time - please try to get your responses in by 4pm ESt if u think of it - respond here & don't pm me, i get lots of messages

Anyone too blind to notice OttkeRuiz was a troll before must now surely be certain.

what if this happens in their "rehearsal fight"?

I think so because it would help overcome some grey areas in boxing.

For example, do you think Dirrell would have played dead if he knew he had a free shot at Abraham?

Because he has 2 options-

1) Lie on the the floor and play dead ensuring Abe losses by DQ and get called a *****.

2) Get up and fight like a man- Abe gets a point reduction, but you might be a bit dazed from the shot and still have the chance to lose.

then you could have number 3- your idea- which is the best of both as you could get sweet revenge.

I'm voting yes

Apparently for race-baiting. It's only temporary.
