This. But to be honest, i think the boxing rules in terms of how to punch are way to strict. I dont really care how you land your punch as long as its not your underarm or wrist.
Cry me a river, Fury lands a few slapping japs with odd form, which probably do less damage. Let's talk about real fouls, then. 1. Wlad deliberately headbutts Fury in the face. No action taken. 2. Wilder KD's Fury with a back of the head punch. No action taken. These are actual fouls that matter. Talk about them before trying to attack Fury.
Yes, we all know Wilder a former basketball player that throws windmills like crazy and has sloppy technique, etc. He has been criticized for it numerous times. Fury who is supposed to be the second coming now, the greatest heavyweight of all time according to some after he defeated the 7th ranked German heavyweight, yet he can't throw a proper jab and backhands his opponents to set up his shots easier.
They're both ATG foulers. I prefer the finesse and textbook technique of Ward to the sometimes sloppy billygoat charges of Hopkins personally, but I can see how others might favour Hopkins on a head to head basis.
I wonder where Tim Bradley would stand. He has had like 4 fights end via TD due to that big dome of his.
I'd also throw holding the head for an uppercut in there too. Technically illegal and every great uppercutter did it.
