    Same reason why people say he is a woman beater.

    what is the exact lbs per square inch figure that counts as a punch with no force, how is it calculated and why should i care about an IBA rule when scoring?

    There have been numerous occasions in which a potential fight involving him is heavily clamored for by hardcores and sometimes even casuals that have failed to come to fruition at the time of the fights peak clamor.

    Common sense really, just a tap. Light jabs are jabs, they can have a force to them. But if it's very light with a jab hand, like a tap, then that doesn't count. That is different to a jab, light or heavy.
    Just an example.

    Yeah you're right.

    In 50 years everyone will care what forum-goers thought about boxers' career rather than other boxers/trainers/writers.

    Cool story, StreetsOfGold. Will read again!

    i don't see it as common sense at all tbh, either it has to be very defined or it makes no sense. scoring harder shots more is one thing, not scoring landed punches because they weren't hard enough is hugely subjective. By that rule if fighter x cleanly lands 1000 light jabs in a round none of them count he will lose the round to fighter y's single jab that was just a little bit harder, but hard enough to count.

    I watched the fight at 4am or whatever, and wont watch it again for a good while, so i can't claim your card is wrong, but would it be the same if you didn't use a rule from one of the lesser sanctioning bodies, who didn't even sanction that fight?

    edit; maybe i'm just not getting why you felt to highlight the relevance of that rule
