    I can't remember any fight that was stopped by DQ because of a headbutt, could anyone provide some video of such a fight? What's the drill, does there need to be a warning first? Point deduction?

    I'm asking because of the Ward-Kessler fight of course. Now don't get me wrong, Ward looked fantastic but that last headbutt was one of the worst I've seen and I think a point deduction was appropriate.

    Thanks guys.

    But wow the Clottey headbutt he got DQ'd for looks real innocent compared to the Ward one.

    Check out at 2:40.

    Of course Clottey was warned before that but still Ward should at least get a warning.

    Reason fighters aren't DQed more for headbutts is because refs these days don't know how to spot intentional ones... just notice how every mother****ing head clash you see that results in a cut is always ruled unintentional. Yeah, unintentional my ass! :ass
