    Hello guys. I've never boxed in a ring before but I have been watching boxing for a long time. But sometimes there are things I forget about the sport. Hopefully in this thread you guys can answer some of my questions. For starters. Is it legal to block a incoming punch with your forearm/elbow or glove? Thanks!

    That was kind of Foreman's primary defence, catching punches with his gloves.

    I meant with your arm extended outward not tucked in?
