    When Mike Tyson first bit someone’s ear off, he wasn’t dq’d.

    far more serious than anything that happened in the tank fight.

    But a fighter taking a knee is never discretionary.

    A fighter touching down is and has been before. Not saying it’s right.

    You are incorrect and don’t understand the rules. For your education on boxing rules in respect of a knock down which only the referee can adjudge:

    The ref is in charge in there.

    Refs can do counts as long as 50seconds or even more if they want, they can rule knockdowns as slips, they can rule legit punches a foul, they can stop someone getting knocked out and give them a breather, they can even throw towel out the ring once they’ve been thrown in. They can let you bite your opponent, they can let you punch the ref (himself) and continue.

    ref decides the rules in there.

    Have you ever seen a referee ignore a fighter taking a knee.

    “Taking a knee” yes, usyk as a recent example.

    “Touching down” yes, several times.

    “a fighter being hit and slightly touching the floor during a barrage but no knockdown scored” yes seen that too

    as said, fighters can go down and a ref not call it a knockdown. If this happens it is not an official knockdown.
    I’m not saying it’s right. But the ref is the judge of fact in the ring.

    Usyk wasn't ignored for taking a knee, the referee ruled it was a low blow.

    You've never known as ref ignore a fighter taking a knee before.

    Referee was weak but I wouldn't call it corruption. He should have at least took a point from Davis.

    Somebody else mentioned Usyk v Dubois, and I think it is fair to say its the referee's decision when to stop boxing not the fighters.

    The referee shouldn't be bullied into making a decision that benefits a fighter, especially when it goes against the rules as we saw the other night.

    The difference is you hate Tank and love Usyk so at least be honest. In any event only the referee not fans can determine whether a knockdown has been scored or not.
