Should There Be 3 Knockdown's Rule ??

I don't think a standard rule should exist. Leave it up to the ref with an understanding that if a knockdown happens late in a fight, just be very careful regarding letting the fight go on.

Almost all permanent injuries / Deaths occur in the later rounds, when a fighter is exhausted and less able to recover and more prone to get really nailed.

Early in a fight, many knockdowns are not as severe, and if they still have their faculties, the three knockdown rule could impede a fighter who is simply cold and fighting with nervous energy from getting into the fight.

It's a crap rule.

Knockdowns get called all the time that are CLEARLY not legit knockdowns.

3KD rule is HORRIBLE, its the thing that makes non-title fights in NYS gay, that and the no standing 8 count rule used here


standing 8 count is gangsta

Sam peter says hell no !!

The stupid 3 knock down rule came in with the WBO, Another reason that organization is garbage

no,the knockdowns could be just flash knockdowns,wouldnt be fair if a fighter got stopped like that,its up 2 the ref to stop the fight.......

Again I feel like it should depend on the ref or corner to end the fight... I mean if the fighter gets KD in the 1st 10 secs of the round from a flash gets up at 2, gets KD by a flash at 1:30 of a round and then Flashed again with 10sec left then the fight would be over... On the otherhand when a fighters in trouble even with the 3 KD rule alot of times the ref calls the fight after a 2nd KD anyway.

Then there are instances like Morrison and Bentt when 3 KD were just right in that fight and there could be no complaints either way.

I guess what I am saying is that the 3 KD rule is great EXCEPT in an instance when a fighter is flashed 3x in a round but i clearly fit to continue... Like stated above there are plenty of times where the 3 KD is in effect but when a fighter is hurt the ref waves after 2 KD an way

A flash knock down is usually some kind of a slip
Leave that to the ref's discretion
But 3 legit knockdowns in one round,cmon people,thats going down once a minute,boxers have families too you know.The boxers think the ref's decision on the knockdowns was BS,petition for a re-match.
If they arent and it continues,its very hard to have a re-match if your mouth is full of marbles,for the rest of your life

So Marquez had no business being in the ring with Pac after getting floored three times?

How come Pac didn't knock him out in the next round?

;D Good answer.


It shows though that the three knockdown rule doesn't work.

What the hell,lets just throw people out there with a battle axe and a sword,and dispatch with any pretense of it being a legitimate sport
Cmon Romans,do ya hear me!!!
