    Without a doubt that shouldve been a DQ. DEI opportunities given for him to act normal.

    Which is interesting because I think refs are far too hesitant to deduct points when they should.

    Absolutely should have been a point deduction. Maybe Foster didn't think he'd go through the ropes, but he blatantly swung Ford around and shoved him.

    This is why you don't have fights in Texas. If normal boxing refs are fairly incompetent and bent, the ones in Texas make those guys look like impeccable angels.

    Agreed. I would say it looked like the throw was pretty much intentional, but I can't say as to whether he intended to throw him out the ring necessarily. But as you say either way, that was the result.

    I completely agree with your second point
