    I think there's a clear difference between Foreman, and whining to the ref about being fouled. And if you are going to do it, wait for a break in the action. But yeah, of courseyou should foul back if they are getting away with it, especially now, when no one gets DQ'd without being warned multiple times anyway.

    "Protect yourself at all times" wise words not heeded by Sharkey, a left hook from Dempsey stopped the conversation in double quick time.
