What is the ruling if two boxers both throw a punch at the same time that connects with their opponent and they are both KO'd? i.e. each punches at the same time and each man's punch lands - the opponent then goes down and fails to beat the count of 10. Is it classed as a draw, a loss to both fighters, or a no contest? Genuine question, I just don't know what the ruling would be. Thanks
It would depend on who was ruled to have hit the canvas first because that fighter would logically have to be counted out first. There would then probably be an appeal submitted by the loser...The fight would then be rewatched and a victor would be officially determined. There's no physical way that they would each hit the canvas at the same exact time.
