When they gave the post fight interview, instead of shaking hands, the guy sucker-punched the scrawny guy, and Kod him in front of everyone. Couldn't believe it, no class what-so-ever. Forget who the fighters were. Anyone have a clue? The scrawny guy who won, was an african-american, and after that fight, he started coloring his hair, maybe pink or yellow. Can't remember his name, or the guy who sucker-punched him.
As for the question in the thread, yes i would go ahead with the fight, and I probably would swing back as a reflex.
Agreed.....That scum bag should be banned.Sign of violence to come unfortunately.It was a charity show for Fire Fighters and Police killed in 911.The chants of "Lock Him up" rained down and they frog-marched his ass off on the spot.Cheap Bittch Move!

Yes.Hope he rots.
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
Amen to that. This may be off topic, but I think, even though this isn't a press conference, this constitutes a sucker punch (note: I think it's safe history has taught us that lying against the ropes is not the safest place when fighting Ray Mercer):

No doubt...Morrison was doing his best vertical Simon Brown at the hands of Mercer.This was foul from Mercer also ,I think Vs. Jeff pegarses ??He was not called Merciless for nothing;D
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
Just a random (and possibly stupid) question after reading this thread:
Has a boxer ever been charged after a press conference? I mean, technically throwing a sucker punch in a press conference surely must qualify as 'assault'. And - this could be funny - has a fight ever been cancelled due to one of the fighters hitting the other fighter pre-figth and then being arrested?

Michael Bennt and Herbie Hide were heavily fined and charged for disturbing the peace after their bust up.
And to answer the question, yes I would continue with the fight, assuming I had not received a cut or significant swelling.
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
I would just hit him back.....would serve him right wouldn't it.
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
I have had this in my dream. I am fighting Mayweather and I am teasing him about how he has avoided all the top fighters and he hits me before our big fight. I decide to call the police and they arrest him on the eve of the fight and he at the police station. All the mass media and commotion messes with his head and I intend to press charges and sue his ass after as well. All the governing bodies are pleading with me to drop the charges but I insist that they are not dropped. Anyway the whole pressure on his mind means he is not focused and I end up beating him up quite badly but he sees the fight out to the end and he looses a UD. He still ends up charged and I still end up suing him for a multi million dollar settlement so that I win on all accounts.
So the long answer is yes and I would still press charges and sue.

Technically no. That's not a sucker punch.

Larry Donald sued Bowe for about 50 grand
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
Of course I would, I would want every opp in the world to show the public exactly what kind of guy this is and the only way he can get one up on me is by taking a cheap shot...Not to mention my opp at kicking his rear end and not being penalized for it...
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
I would take it out on him in the ring, if i could.
Re: If a boxer punched you at a press conference would you go through with the fight?
