Boxing- essential Rules, skills and techniqu,General Rules
Boxing match typically consists of a determined
of rounds: four at minimum and 12 at most. Eac
lasts three minutes, with one minute of rest in b
Judges are assigned to score the match. A match
end for four different reasons:
• A fighter is knocked to the ground and the ref
counts to ten (a “knock out”)
• A fighter is knocked out and can no longer con
“technical knock out”)
• A match goes all 12 rounds, but one fighter ea
more points than the other (a “draw”)
• A fighter is disqualified for doing something il
“DQ”)
, Warnings and Point Deductions
• Fighters need to be in the same weight class, and from there, the rules are straightforwar
You cannot hit below the belt nor hold, trip, kick, headbutt, wrestle, bite, spit at, or push a
opponent. You also cannot hit with your head, shoulder, forearm, or elbow.
• “Legal target areas are above the belt line' “Accidental fouls get a warning or one-point
deduction. An intentional foul is a two-point deduction, or immediate disqualification,
depending on the severity. However, a subtle use of fouls is part of professional boxing. Fo
example, Mike Tyson punched people on the hip by the sciatic nerve, Floyd Mayweather g
in some good elbow strikes, and Bernard Hopkins had some pretty good head butts in his
career.”
Disqualifications
Fighters can be disqualified for repeatedly fouling an opponent or ignoring the
rules, at a referee’s discretion. Again, this usually occurs with respect to illegal o
overly aggressive and violent moves, like headbutting or low blows.
