Examples of cheating in boxing

Blinded by the Sonny Liston light? Ha Ha.

 

Some heavyweight bit a guy’s ear off in a fight. I forget the details.

 

Yum, Yum, tasty. Eat em up.

 

You mean like Juan Coggi's cornerman being allowed to stand on the ring apron gripping Coggi's waistband so he doesn't fall over during his first bout with Eder Gonzalez? And I haven't even gotten to the referee and the timekeeper.

 

Miguel Lora was given some kind of illegal substance in his water in between rounds against Alberto Davila in their second fight, very similar to Aaron Pryor when he fought Arguello. For some reason they never disqualified Lora for it.

 

He also landed as many elbows as gloves in that fight.

 

How about this? I can use the laces of your glove- by crossing the laces up by the knuckles then pulling them tight and down to the wrist- to move the padding off the knuckles. Then wrap tape around the glove to keep it there.

Andrew Golota Vs. Samson Po'uha

 

Spitting out your mouthguard to buy more time after a knockdown is "savvy veteran cheating". Corrales famously did it against Castillo the first time. Recently Navarette did it against Liam Wilson. It's infuriating to watch.

 

Putting an opponents underwear in the opposite corner, bundled in a towel and having the fighter blow his nose between rounds into the towel. And the poor guy faints between rounds from skid marks and all.

 

Aaron Pryors mixed bottle against Arguello is the most obvious. Also that pos Rock Newman grabbing Riddick Bowes opponent from behind and Bowe teeing off on the dude.

 

Pick a Holyfield fight and grab a bucket of popcorn...
