    Yet DC was allowed to continue to finger Stipe´s eye-sockets like puff pastries.

    You said Dubois in MMA would have been DQ´d instantly. I said no, because DQ´s in MMA are as rare as in boxing. And now you have argued for me:
    So no, Dubois would not have been DQ´d.

    And you are over exaggerating the headbutts. Yes, there were some blatant ones, but we see similar contact in every combat sport.
    It´s not as if Dubois intentionally swung his head like a rock. He didn´t pull a Victor Ortiz.

    Show us that constant finger of DC in that Stipe fight. As i never remember it being that bad. There is no way someone is allowed to constantly poke you, like 20-30 times and get away with it. Or low blow you to death in MMA.

    This ain't happen buddy. You obviously biased and trying to defend Boxing, but it's a lost cause.
    You can't show me any clip of that, and if that ever happen, the referee won't have a job after that.

    In Boxing i can show you million fights with constant fouling and referee doing nothing about it.
    Show me 10 such MMA fights for example.

    I can name you a few straight away in Boxing.
    Loma - Salido
    Ward - Kovalev, Hell half of Ward fights are all being dirty asf
    Klitschko - Povetkin
    Okolie - Smith, eh hell every single Okolie fight in that matter
    Haney - Garcia, Hell half of Haney fights, yet he wasn't even warned for his excessive holding

    Usyk - Dubois constant low blows
    Dubois - Hrgovic 20-30 headbutts(will count them exactly on a rewatch)
    And how about this:

    P.P. Dubois was charging with his head. You cannot goes on with your head first into a clinch, as this is intentionally trying to connect with your head.
    This was clearly intentional and he was doing it with Miller as well, though he didn't headbutt Miller so many times.
    And the rules are clear:
    If a boxer receives a head butt or others illegal blows which do not cause an injury or cut, the referee will give a warning to the offending Boxer, deducting one (1) point per Judge or may disqualify the offending boxer if actions deemed sufficiently serious to warrant a disqualification.

    (a) hitting below the belt: (b) using the “pivot blow”: (c) hitting on the back of the head or neck: (d) kidney punching; (e) hitting with the open glove, the inside, or the butt or the back of the hand, or with the wrist or elbow; (f) holding, butting, or careless use of the head, shouldering, wrestling or roughing: (g) not trying; (h) persistently ducking below the waistline; (i) intentional falling without receiving a blow; (j) failing to break when so ordered, or striking or attempting to strike an opponent on the break; (k) deliberately striking an opponent when they are dropping to the floor or when they are down; (l) hitting an opponent after the termination of a round; (m) unsporting conduct; (n) any other conduct which a Referee may deem foul; (o) boxing whilst under the influence of a prohibted substance;

    Why we are even commenting on this, when this was so blatant, it's unreal. It wasn't 1 or 2 or 5 to saying it wasn't blatant or intentional. This was Dubois clear strategy, as he was just clinching and headbutting Hrgovic in every single occassion.

    And referee was British of course, do we expect to not support his countryman ?
    And Saudi were the Boxing savior .....

    P.P. And finally:
    What Is a Headbutt in Boxing?
    A headbutt in boxing involves deliberately using one's head to strike an opponent. This can occur when a fighter lunges forward, leading with their forehead or skull, aiming to impact their opponent's face, head, or upper body.

    Is Headbutting in Boxing Illegal?
    Yes, headbutting is unequivocally illegal in boxing. It is considered a foul under the rules of most boxing organizations and governing bodies, including amateur and professional boxing. When a fighter intentionally headbutts their opponent, they may face point deductions, warnings, or even disqualification, depending on the severity and intent of the infraction.

    Read the bold case. This is exactly what Dubois was constantly doing. Lunges forward and leading with his head with straight intention to headbutt Hrgovic.
    While it wasn't full force headbutt most of the time, this was still 100% illegal and has it's tool big time on Hrgovic, and should have been DQ for it.

    :lol: Agree to disagree.
    You are way too emotionally charged to even understand what I disagreed with.
